Riiiight, the Founders risked everything so the son of a Brit could one day become POTUS.

How ridiculous is that?

No, because Blackstone’s original definition would have excluded someone who had divided loyalties. That was the whole point. Natural born is citizenship by birth through the parents...regardless of where the birth takes place. Native born just describes the place. Of course Blackstone didn’t live in a Republic so he used the term ‘subject’ not citizen.
