The question is this — is a person born of one parent who is American on a foreign soil, a natural born citizen?
Some say ‘Yes’, some say ‘No’.
Who’s to decide?

that is indeed the issue, and as far as I can tell, it has NOT yet been decided one way or the other. Common sense says NO, or otherwise why would the founders bother to put that specific qualification in for President and for no other office. However, presumably the US Supreme Court would ultimately decide, but they are at least as corrupt as the rest of the government, so flipping a coin would give a result equally as valid as anything coming out of the Supreme Court.
