U.S. citizen at birth means a “natural born citizen” i.e. not a “naturalized” citizen.

I never claimed there was no distinction between a “natural born citizen” and a “U.S. citizen”, please engage what I actually said rather than what you thought I said.

My Governor is a U.S. citizen, but he is a naturalized immigrant and not a natural born citizen. In other words (for those of you in Rio Linda) he was not a U.S. citizen AT BIRTH.

The language from the Constitution, that I provided in my reply to you, cannot refer to naturalized citizens, because naturalized citizens are expressly forbidden under the Constitution.

That the language differentiates between "natural born citizen" and "citizen" in that language means that there is a difference between the two, with "citizen" not being naturalized.

So, "natural born citizen" means something more than a U. S. citizen at birth.

Shall we make you an honorary citizen of Rio Linda?
