NOT a single one of the cut and paste quotes you use in posts 402&403 have anything to do with Vattel’s book Law of Nations. The use of term law of nations ( non-capitalized as in your quotes) in your examples is a legal term of art that refers to international law, not a book.

You obviously do not have a legal background and are having difficulty with the concept of natural born citizenship. It really isn't difficult to understand. An easy way to grasp the definition of nbc is to remember that if an individual is a citizen at birth, that person is a natural born citizen and eligible to be president, and if you become a citizen after your birth you are a naturalized citizen and not eligible to be president.

You seem to be hung up on the totally misguided idea that Vattel has anything to do with nbc in 21st century jurisprudence. What I have been trying to explain to you in the past few posts, is the well established and settled citizenship law for the past century. If you are so gung-ho about Vattel, show me one citizenship case in the past 100 years that uses the Vattel definition of nbc.
