I just reviewed the U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual Volume 7 - Consular Affairs, Section 7 FAM 1100 ACQUISITION AND RETENTION OF U.S. CITIZENSHIP AND NATIONALITY and Section 7 FAM 1110 ACQUISITION OF U.S. CITIZENSHIP BY BIRTH IN THE UNITED STATES and can find no definition of NBC.

and can find no definition of NBC.

That is because Natural Born Citizenship (as defined by Vattel, and understood by the founders) is not the result of any statutes, or legislation, or legal action of any kind.

A Natural Born Citizen is one born in the country to two citizen parents; there is no question of citizenship, or of any natural allegiance to any other country, and therefore no need for any legal action or legislation to define their status.

Of all the presidents of the USA, all except two have been born in the USA to two parents who were citizens at the time of the president's birth. The two exceptions were Chester A. Arthur and Obama.

Just because it isn't in this publication doesn't mean its not in another. I posted on this issue years ago and wasted about an hour trying to get back to the record but gave up in despair because I have been too chatty and going through 2 years of my posts was beyond the time I had available. If you know of a better way to comb through past posts, I am open to it because I cited the source and provided quotes.
