Cherry picking is exactly what you are doing by citing the a couple of sentences from the dissent in WKA. The argument in the dissent is that the existing treaties with China (which didn’t allow foreign naturalization of its subjects) are not and cannot be overridden by the 14th amendment.
“In other words, the Fourteenth Amendment does not exclude from citizenship by birth children born in the United States of parents permanently located therein, and who might themselves become citizens; nor, on the other hand, does it arbitrarily make citizens of children born in the United States of parents who, according to the will of their native government and of this Government, are and must remain aliens.”
I didn’t cherry pick WKA. I quoted several pages, covering the first part of their argument: that WKA was a natural born citizen, and thus a citizen. I have also posted the link to the entire decision for anyone to read.
