Why does citing binding US Supreme court precedent make anyone a “nutcase birther?”

As I understand, the derogatory term “birther” applies to those who doubt that Obama was born in the US. I gave no opinion on that whatsoever.

I gave a cite and a Supreme Court precedent that says a “natural born citizen” is born in the USA of 2 citizen parents.

Instead of name calling, could you please provide the US Supreme Court case in which that precedent was overruled?

Except it doesn't. See my post above.

“...binding” ?
Are there non-binding decisions ?
