Ridiculous. There is no such distinction in the amendment. It says "ALL PERSONS".

"Ntural Born is in the Constitution......much earlier."

There's no conflict between the "natural born citizen" clause and the 14th. However, if there were, it's not the earlier law that wins. That's not how it works.
