“And specifically defined them as “Natural Born” Citizens.”

Yes, I should have included from the link you provided:

“..It specifies that such children “shall be considered as natural born citizens”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalization_Act_of_1790

This is the first time I’ve ever seen where our Founders specifically stated that “citizenship for the children of US citizens born abroad, ..” are NATURAL BORN CITIZENS
