The Supreme Court said the definition was extraconstitutional and cited a Vatellian definition, born in the country to citizens.

Show me where the Supreme Court has ruled what a Natural Born Citizen is, not a citizen, I want Natural Born Citizen.....

John McCain was questioned about his citizenship because of his birth in the Panama Canal Zone, it was the Congress that ruled BECAUSE BOTH OF HIS PARENTS WERE CITIZENS that he could be declared a NBC...personally, I think they were wrong as well, while his parents were both Citizens, he was NOT born on the military base where his father was stationed but a private hospital.

Where did the term Natural Born Citizen come from? Vattel’s Law of Nations, the founders didn’t just make it up, they had a reference point for the term.
