A natural born citizen is a member of the state by birth within and under it. Just another way of saying "citizen by birth."

You posted that gigantic thread just to say that? And, then we still disagree. Oh, well.

Well, if you disagree, then you disagree with every signer of the Constitution known to have spoken on the matter, and all of our most prominent early legal authorities.

40% of the signers of the Constitution were in on specifying that children born abroad to US citizens were to be counted as natural born citizens also, as long as their father had ever resided in the United States - which fact alone (never mind the mountain of other evidence) simply destroys the idea that the Framers wanted "natural born citizen" to mean "born on US soil of two citizen parents."

Not that I expected you to do anything but "disagree." Birthers are impervious to any facts and any arguments. They wouldn't be birthers if they weren't.
