“My point is that Congress HAS changed Citizenship requirements, for those born on foreign soil, several times.”

Congress has Constitutional Authority to write legislation to determine the procedure for obtaining citizenship through the naturalization process. This is done through revision of the Immigration and Naturalization Act.

Congress cannot define a Natural born citizen or establish a process for obtaining the Natural born citizen classification because it does not have the Constitutional Authority.

Congress DOES have Coequal authority, along with the Courts and the President -— to interpret the Constitution.

You are clearly wrong.
