Since the term “natural born citizen” is not clearly defined, it is up to Congress to define it. Simple as that. That is one of the things covered under hte “necessary and proper” clause.

Unfortunately congress has no power to define the term. Only the Supreme Court can make it settled law. It is specifically derived from the constitution. (Not even case law can settle it.)
