The kid is a natural-born citizen because his mother was a citizen.

Prior to 1922, she couldn't pass on citizenship. Would he have been a citizen prior to 1922? The law of that time says "no", but i'm interested in hearing what you think would have happened.

I find strong cognitive dissonance to be fascinating.

Under the laws of the time, no. Under current law he's a natural born citizen.

Sorry to disappoint. But I admit I find birther threads amusing.
