-- It i a matter of interpretation that is not up to me. The constitution needs to be interpreted by the Federal courts, its a Federal question. --

The rule of law is not as harsh or black and white as is casually discussed. The place of birth isn't exactly the relevant input. US citizenship tracks state citizenship, and state citizenship tracks domicile. Where you live is not always where you are. If your child is a citizen of the state of the parents domicile, under state law, then it is born a citizen of the state you are domiciled in, which makes the child an Art IV, Sec. 2 citizen of the US. If the child is born in the US, then it is both an Art IV, Sec. 2 and 14th amendment citizen of the US.

Natural Born is a specific term that cannot be changed by State law or even Federal Statute. It must be interpreted by Federal Court under Federal question jurisdiction.
