Sorry, i've been busy.

Go back and reread the Naturalization Act – it specifies born beyond the sea or out of the limits of the United States. Which obviously means it doesn’t apply to those born in the United States.

Hmm... I am seemingly unable to get the salient point across to you. Perhaps I can express it mathematically?
X = Born on the Soil. (Jus Soli)
Y = Born to citizen Parents. (Jus Sanguinus)
Z = Article II "Natural born citizen" status.

We have a couple of equations. For example,
we know that X + Y = Z, because the Supreme court told us so in Minor v Happersett.

We know that 0 + Y = Z, because the 1rst Congress told us so in the "naturalization act of 1790.

We can use two simultaneous equations to solve for "X".

X + Y = Z
0 + Y = Z
_________
X + 0 = 0

Conclusion?

X = 0.

Apparently the "X" part of the equation doesn't matter to the Z status.

Your math is lacking.
X = Born on the Soil. (Jus Soli)
Y = Born to citizen Parents. (Jus Sanguinus)
Z = Article II “Natural born citizen” status.

X = natural born; Early American legal scholars tell us so, Several Attorneys general tell us so, Rogers v. Bellei affirms that in this, the Constitution follows English common law.
Y = By statute, this was made equivalent to natural born.
