However, there is law that if both parents are not U. S. Citizens then one’s status as a natural born citizen is in doubt.

Well that sure is an intesting law.

Would you happen to have the name of that law?

Up until now I was not aware that the word "Doubt" was definitive enough to be used when writing a law.

You seem unable to comprehend. It is not a statute it is the best known Supreme Court case dealing with the actual phrase used in Article II. It was decided in 1874. You could learn to research before you launch ill-founded assertions and accusations and look it up. Let me give you a clue. The Constitution means what it says and is law superior to the “written law” as you insist on assuming is “the law.” As most of us understand Congress cannot override the Constitution. Certainly that Congress has not written a law that echoes a phrase and provision in the Constitution, particularly one as specific as the one in question, proves nothing in law.
