-- And, indeed, we are required even to document that we have been born in the USA ... --

Ummm, you may want to rephrase that. What we are sometimes asked to prove is that we are legally present, and/or that we are citizens. Your argument depends on birth location being an irrelevant factor, if one parent is a citizen.

The statute, which you elevate above the constitution, also says anchor babies born of alien parents are citizens. Not relevant at the moment, but may be for a future candidate.

You can’t elevate above the Constitution the supreme law of the land that is derived at by the process laid out in the Constitution. With the Constitution and Constitutionally approved Treaties, we are talking about what the constitution calls “the supreme law of the land.”

And the constitution gave the area of citizenship to Congress.

Unless you know of some place in the Constitution where it defines “natural born citizen.”;
