Actually, that FAM text was updated today.
7 FAM 1131.6-3 Not Citizens by “Naturalization”
(CT:CON-479; 08-19-2013)
Section 101(a)(23) INA (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(23)) provides that the term “naturalization” means “the conferring of nationality of a state upon a person after birth, by any means whatsoever.” Persons who acquire U.S. citizenship at birth by birth abroad to a U.S. citizen parent or parents who meet the applicable statutory transmission requirements are not considered citizens by naturalization.
Natural Citizens are conferred rights above Naturalized
Citizens.
My nieces may not hold office as President.
That is the way I understand it.
Teds Dad was naturalized, His Mom was a natural citizen and by way of law Ted is a natural citizen.

I bet whoever updated the language is posting here on FR! :P
Just today? I still see that citizenship at birth abroad to a US citizen is still NOT to be considered a naturalization.
