No, it “plainly means” one who is born as a citizen. As opposed to someone who, later in life, goes through a “natiralization” process.

Do you mean to say that an ambassador’s child born in anothet country can not become president?

An ambassador's child would be born at an Embassy, which is native U.S. soil. Therefore, this child would be a Natural Born Citizen.

Obviously a person born a US citizen is eligible. This was discussed regarding McCain who was born in the Panama Canal Zone. I thought Cruz was born a Canadian, obviously I was wrong. If he was born a US citizen he is eligible.

Some of these people think if George and Martha Washington crossed into Canada and she gave birth, their child would be rendered ineligible. Ridiculous.
