Yep that's the one, and again you left out the part immediately following...

Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts. It is sufficient for everything we have now to consider that all children born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction are themselves citizens.

In other words, since there was no doubt she fit the first classification, there was no need to decide whether the second was also correct. Which means they didn't rule on what an NBC is, so it's not a precedent in any way.

Didn't say it was, but there is no dispute that a child born of two citizen parents on the soil of their country is Natural Born, there are disputes otherwise.

Please argue why it take a statute to create a citizen when there is no need to when the child is born as a described.

BTW, I am not arguing that Cruz is unfit for POTUS, I will vote for him if he gets the nomination.

Obama destroyed any notion of NBC, fight fire with fire.
