“And both pretty well HAVE decided that a person born in the USA qualifies.”
Absolutely FALSE. The CONSTITUTION says NBC required, and the founders knew what it meant. They used the definition of NBC at the time. I’m sure you’re not saying they used the definition concocted some decades later. Are you? LOL

From the Appeals Court’s decision:
“Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by [the US Supreme Court in the case of U.S. v] Wong Kim Ark [1898], we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are natural born Citizens for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those born in the allegiance of the United States natural-born citizens.Indiana Court of Appeals, “Ankeny et. al. v The Governor of Indiana, Mitch Daniels,” Nov. 12, 2009
