"We start from the premise that the rights of citizenship of the native born and of the naturalized person are of the same dignity, and are coextensive. The only difference drawn by the Constitution is that only the "natural born" citizen is eligible to be President. Art. II, S: 1."
Again, there are two categories: naturalized, and either native born or natural born - the terms again are used as synonyms.
I'd drop this particular line of argument, if I was you.

You are not me.
“”We start from the premise that the rights of citizenship of the native born and of the naturalized person are of the same dignity, and are coextensive. The only difference drawn by the Constitution is that only the “natural born” citizen is eligible to be President. Art. II, S: 1.”
The only difference between what? Between being native born and being a naturalized citizen. Only they then use the phrase NBC instead of native born, so the two are synonyms and equivalent.
Try it in this context:
“There are two dogs - a German Shepherd, and a Collie. The only difference is that the GSD is bigger.”
Now, is GSD = German Shepherd? Yes. Is NBC = native born? Yes.
