The Framers also wrote the Articles of Confederation before they replaced it with the U.S. Constitution. Are you going to also claim that our nation is bound to the words they said in that earlier document?
You're basing your argument on an act that was repealed. You may as well argue that Prohibition is still the law of the land. Good luck.
Allow me to say it again, Windflier.
The repeal of the statute has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that these founders thought the definition of “natural born citizen” to be appropriate to describe a child born to US citizens overseas.
I would be excited to learn they also used the expression “natural born citizen” to describe a child born overseas to US citizens. It would simply further confirm the point.
Being born overseas to US citizens abroad does not preclude the use of the expression “natural born citizen.”
These Founders saw NO CONTRADICTION in using that expression to describe a child born overseas to US citizens.
