Citizen is not the issue. There is a special class of citizenship. The term for it is natural born citizen. Framer John Jay knew what natural born citizen is when he told George Washington to put it in the Constitution. He got it from Emer de Vattel’s highly acclaimed and influential, “The Law of Nations, Or, Principles of the Law of Nature, Applied to the Conduct and Affairs of Nations and Sovereigns,” Section 212 (1758 French) (1759 English).
that’s not what the article said. It said his citizenship is the issue. :-)
