(1) The States didn't write the Fourteenth Amendment — Congress did. (And it seems that Congress' view of citizenship differs little [if at all] from the view of the Framers.) Then the States ratified it as written.
(2) Surely you have heard of the Supremacy Clause — Article VI.
Who knows? You may get to test your legal theory some day.
Thank you so much for writing!
“The States didn’t write the Fourteenth Amendment — Congress did.”

So I’ll stand with Judges Bork & Scalia on original intent...
