Wonder if natural-born citizens include turkey baster and cloned citizens?

Might be an interesting Supreme Court case.

The phrase is natural born. Nowhere does it say (and the Founders could scarcely have imagined) naturally conceived. There might be a semantic case for excluding a native citizen who was delivered by C-section, but I don't think the court is going to invoke the MacBeth clause.
