Don't play stupid. You know it's from Vatel.
You also know that it's stated in court cases that recourse outside of the Constitution is needed for such a definition.
Your game is old and tired.

Yes, I know where YOU get it - a book where the phrase first appeared in print AFTER the Constitution was written.

Don’t you feel a bit stupid saying the Constitution is based on a phrase found in a book AFTER the Constitution?

And yes, the courts HAVE said the definition must be found elsewhere, so they have consistently used English common law and the accepted meaning of the equivalent phrase ‘natural born subject’ - but that leads to a very different conclusion than you want, doesn’t it?
