She may be a native born citizen, but she is not a "natural born citizen". A "natural born citizen" is a child born of TWO citizen parents. Neither of her parents were citizens at the time of her birth.

That is what I was taught in grade and high school. Obama arrives on the scene, and suddenly the meaning changes.

"She may be a native born citizen, but she is not a "natural born citizen". A "natural born citizen" is a child born of TWO citizen parents. Neither of her parents were citizens at the time of her birth."

That's wrong. There is no requirement anywhere in US law that one's parents be citizens in order to be a natural born citizen. None. That's a made up birther notion.

"That is what I was taught in grade and high school. Obama arrives on the scene, and suddenly the meaning changes."

Not true either. The birther version was not being taught in schools, let alone the fact that grade school and high school are not law school. And nothing changed with Obama except that a bunch of birthers started distorting what the law has always been because they wanted to wish him away.
