Do you believe these words are truthful form Rep. John Bingham, the father of the 14th Amendment? Pay attention to the parents allegiance part.

“All from other lands, who by the terms of [congressional] laws and a compliance with their provisions become naturalized, are adopted citizens of the United States; all other persons born within the Republic, of parents owing allegiance to no other sovereignty, are natural born citizens. Gentleman can find no exception to this statement touching natural-born citizens except what is said in the Constitution relating to Indians.” (Cong. Globe, 37th, 2nd Sess., 1639 (1862))

And this:

“Every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.” (Cong. Globe, 39th, 1st Sess., 1291 (1866))

Excuse me. I meant ‘from’ and not ‘form’.

SO WHAT?
Your quotes do not exclude anyone, they only state groups of people who ARE “natural born Citizens”.
