Under current interpretation of US law, if he is born on US soil, he is a natural born citizen.

He is a citizen by virtue of the 14th amendment which *GRANTS* him citizenship. Natural born citizens do not require the 14th amendment to make them citizens, so therefore a 14th amendment citizen cannot be a natural citizen.

If he is born on non-US soil to at least 1 US citizen at the time of his birth, he is a natural born citizen.

Absolutely incorrect. The Supreme court itself said in Wong Kim Ark that if a child is born outside of the United States, the child can only become a citizen through a naturalization process instituted through congress.

We have been over this many times. You continue to maintain your position, I continue to maintain mine. We are not going to change each others opinions, so I see no value in hashing over the same material.
