A natural born citizen is whatever Congress says it is.

So you think Congress can amend the Constitution all by themselves?

Do you have a copy? Check out Article V.

“So you think Congress can amend the Constitution all by themselves? “

The Constitution does not define “natural born citizen.”

Therefore, it is automatically the power of Congress to supply a definition.

You cannot amend the Constitution on something that the Constitution says nothing about.

Again, there is no definition of “natural born citizen”

And THEREFORE, it is the role of Congress to define the term.
