Can you point where in the Constitution it defines what a natural born citizen is?

Can you point to, in your car's owners manual where it defines what a "head on collision" is?

NBC was a commonly known term of art at the time and is well defined as a person born of two American citizens, with no foreign allegiance.

Then please see the first law passed by the first Congress that defined a Natural Born Citizen - the only law to do so, and one passed by the men who wrote the Constitution - called the Naturalization Act of 1790 that stated a Natural Born Citizen could be born off of US soil, which is opposite of Vattel, the typical resource used by those that claim Obama is not an NBC.

This has been hashed to death, and the fact remains - there is no settled law - nor Constitutional definition - of what a Natural Born Citizen is. And per the 14th Amendment, birth on US soil makes one a citizen by natural birth - a natural born citizen.
