It DOES NOT MATTER what any SCOTUS ruling says, if said ruling was based on the citizenship requirements in place at that time, and those requirements were later altered by Congress -—

Just as Madison, Father of the Constitution, said that Congress had the power to do!

Natural Born Citizen means CITIZEN AT BIRTH, based on the laws in place at the time of birth.

What does natural mean?

Why did the Founders remove born a citizen and replace with natural born Citizen?

Since Congress can only enact legislation pertaining to naturalization, per Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4 (To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization...), how could Congress pass legislation concerning a natural born citizen and then alter that legislation later, as you state, when it was never empowered to do so?

Aren't those "altered requirements" you're talking about merely changes to legislation previously enacted by Congress?

That's odd, since Malihi based a good part of his argument on it.
