All they have to do is write an Amendment defining NBC.

And have it ratified by the states....of course you knew that.

Is that how it works? Dang I didn’t know that.

Why would any State have any problem with defining NBC though a Constitutional Amendment?

My personal view is that nothing will ever happen, one way or the other, regarding clarifying the meaning.

It is not necessary to have the states ratify the definition of NBC. The constitution already authorizes Congress to establish all the rules of naturalization via Article 1 Section 8
