Jibberish!
There are no “subjects” of the US. A subject is a possession, much like a slave. We have citizens here, Aliens, Resident Aliens, and Illegal Aliens.
All aliens that have signed a contract with the immigration dept, and have a Green Card to so verify are Resident Aliens, and thus their issue are , like their parents, “under the jurisdiction” of the US. That makes them citizens under the 14th, “Native Citizens,” but not NB citizens, because NB citizenship flows solely from the parents citizenship, not from where they are born.
You accuse everyone else of having "emotional arguments" and your own arguments are dripping with emotion.
A lot of posters have made solid legal arguments as to why Rubio is a Natural Born Citizen. You disagree. We know that. But your arguments are dripping with the emotionality that you have accused others of using. I have used nothing more or less than the professional legal reasoning that people pay me hundreds of dollars an hour to provide. Sorry if you disagree. We can't agree on everything.
Rubio is a Natural Born Citizen in my interpretation of the Constitution. I suspect that the Supreme Court would agree with me. The only way we will know is if Rubio is elected and someone can get the case before the Supreme Court. I can tell you without resorting to any emotional arguments that that will NEVER happen.
