We thus have an acknowledgment that our law in this area follows English concepts with an acceptance of the jus soli, that is, that the place of birth governs citizenship status except as modified by statute.English concept or jus soli means born on the soil = natural born (with usual diplomatic or occupying troop exceptions.) Perhaps simpler for you is the THE HERITAGE GUIDE TO THE CONSTITUTION, whose authors include President Reagan's Attorney General, Edwin Meese.
“Under the longstanding English common-law principle of jus soli, persons born within the territory of the sovereign (other than children of enemy aliens or foreign diplomats) are citizens from birth. Thus, those persons born within the United States are "natural born citizens" and eligible to be President.
Get up top speed. It was debunked a long time ago Meese was the author.
