No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States. We really need to have natural born citizen defined by the courts.

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution,I am no constitutional scholar......but it aseems to me that since both: "natural born citizen" and "citizen of the United States" are used in the same sentence then the terms cannot have the same meaning. Otherwise why use both?
