The word “parents” is nowhere to be found in US Constitution. Therefore the job of defining NBC falls on SCOTUS to interpret what Constitution meant. My opinion or anyone else’s opinion is worthless.
That's where the word "natural" comes in. Nativity: the processes or circumstances of being born.
In a way the left tells us this all the time by using the phrase "Native Americans" to indicate that it's not related to who was born on U.S. soil. To them I, a white man of mostly Anglo-Saxon descent, don't meet the definition of Native American even though I was born in the U.S. The word "native" in that case means it depends on who your parents are.
The same with "natural born citizen". The "natural" part of that is the "process" by when you were born, not the location. For any presidential candidate it matters which parents did the "process" to create him.
Circular reasoning. If there weren't differing opinions how could a question even be brought before the Supreme Court to decide, not interpret, the meaning of NBC?
Says someone born in India...
“the word parents is nowhere to be found in the Constitution “
The word “jurisdiction” is what governs whether you are a natural born citizen or not.

Yes, this needs clarification by the Supreme Court. The problem seems to be finding someone with “standing.”
A major problem with the courts refusing to rule on Obama’s natural-born status was standing. Even though he was president of the United States no citizen had “standing”. ( Sickening really! )
