"No he’s not. He’s a statutory Citizen via the 14th Amendment."

The 14th Amendment is not a statute, it is the Constitution.

There are not different kinds of citizens, there are only differences in how you gain citizenship. Some are not citizens by birth and must go through a legal naturalization process to gain citizenship. Some are citizens by right of birth, and are natural born citizens.

Birthers made up a lot of silly legal mythology about this, but they are wrong.

Some are citizens by right of birth, and are natural born citizens.

Interesting bit of logic there. So when Congress passed a law granting citizenship at birth to the children of Americans born beyond the seas, then congress gave them a "right"?

I thought rights came from God, not congress.
