-- In YOUR opinion, is a child born today in Guam (who you say is an American citizen at birth) to two parents who are from Guam but are American citizens. Is THAT CHILD who was born in Guam a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN for purposes of eligibility for the Presidency? --

No. But you misstate the statute. It is along these lines, using your sentence structure:

a child born today in Guam to two parents who are citizens of any country in the world are citizens of the US immediately upon their birth.

You said they were NBC. "The ONLY damn thing 'natural born citizen' means is that the person is an American citizen immediately upon their birth" @ 50

Look, I know you likely don’t want to answer the question and are probably just pretending to be obtuse, but let me ask you one more time.

Is a child born today in Guam of parents who are residents and citizens of Guam (and also American citizens—probably from their births) an American citizen at the birth of that child in Guam? And, 2nd, is that child born in Guam a “natural born citizen” for purposes of determining eligibility for the American presidency?

These questions are NOT complicated and are meant for clarity. Don’t fear answering them please -— YOU were the person who brought up the Virgin Islands & Guam and American citizenship.
