However, contrary to your statement we were not the same as/identical to a ‘natural born’ citizen.

By what reasoning? And by reasoning, I mean law or court decision - because the only ones I know of would consider you a natural born citizen.

The only thing preventing you from running for President is that you presumably have too much integrity to be a politician. ;)

I set my citizenship by my own reasoning after some reading of discussion at the Constitutional Convention and the Minor vs Happersset ruling. This came about years after a second grade question by the teacher as to what we kids wanted to be when we grew up. She listed a whole bunch of occupations from doctors to gardeners. When I didn’t give a reply she asked me why I had not made a choice. I told her my choice was not listed and she asked what that would be. I flat out told her President of the USA. As I recall she added that to the listing with a smile. Neither I nor my brother who was killed on Okinawa ever gave much thought about this and I didn’t until Obama became the poster boy for the arguments.
