Don’t agree with you. The founders DID say it in plain language of the day. Chester Arthur’s parents were permanent residents of the US, and who’s going to make an issue of it today, in any case?

i DO agree with you.

...the Founding Fathers didn’t write 2000 page bills like congress does now. how many pages is the Constitution?

...they didn’t bother defining “natural born”, because they all knew exactly what it meant. and their other writings show this.
...the President is clearly being held to a higher standard. “natural born”. not native.

if the trolls don’t accept Vattel’s definition, then what do they think the Founding Fathers meant by it?
