Even the Supreme Court has used the terms native born and natural born interchangeably. That’s because they ARE interchangeable and synonymous.

No they haven't....and no they aren't!

“We start from the premise that the rights of citizenship of the native born and of the naturalized person are of the same dignity and are coextensive. The only difference drawn by the Constitution is that only the ‘ natural born’ citizen is eligible to be President. Art. II, s 1.”

The "Native Born" is being compared to the "Naturalized Person".......not the "Natural Born". You need to read this again....more slowly.........

Three types; Natural Born; Native Born; Naturalized!

Like I said somewhere earlier........."Most folks cannot differentiate between Natural Born and Native Born. To them....it's all the same."

Well.......it's not!

[Like I said somewhere earlier........."Most folks cannot differentiate between Natural Born and Native Born. To them....it's all the same." Well.......it's not!] Correct. Native born Citizens and natural born Citizens are not the same and there's evidence to back it up. Here we go: Interpretation 324.2(a)(7): (7) Restoration of citizenship is prospective . Restoration to citizenship under any one of the three statutes is not regarded as having erased the period of alienage that immediately preceded it. The words “shall be deemed to be a citizen of the United States to the same extent as though her marriage to said alien had taken place on or after September 22, 1922″, as they appeared in the 1936 and 1940 statutes, are prospective and restore the status of native-born or natural-born citizen (whichever existed prior to the loss) as of the date citizenship was reacquired. Interpretation 324.2: The effect of naturalization under the above statutes was not to erase the previous period of alienage, but to restore the person to the status IF NATURALIZED, NATIVE, OR NATURAL-BORN CITIZEN, as determined by her status prior to loss. http://doctorbulldog.wordpress.com/2012/01/27/

It is you who are confused about the issue.

You are either natural.

You are MADE natural...naturalized.

The early Congress saw that and decreed that those born overseas to a US citizen parent are “natural born citizens.”
