Well said. That is why it starts out with “We The People” and why we have the original 13th amendment!
I recall someone making a very good argument that the preamble to the constitution clarifies Article II, starting with the use of the words "We the People" and going on to "Secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our POSTERITY!" (Descendants.)
These were the "natural born citizens" referred to in Article II. I believe Natural, Natal, Nativity, Native all share the same roots, which mean "born of."
