"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

At ratification there were two types 1) natural born. 2) naturalized (plus the 14 years of residence required for the presidency). All citizenships were one of those two. The 14th amendment added a third type, born citizen (e.g. slave parents) to undo Dred Scott. The 1898 case United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 turned it back into two types: naturalized and natural born.

Your chart ignores that 1898 case. That case, interpreting the 14th amendment, led to the following definition: “every person born within the dominions and allegiance of the United States . . . is a natural born citizen,” https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/21/21-1394/226610/20220531125853185_Amicus%20Brief.pdf

Neither the 14th Amendment nor the Wong Kim Ark (1898) U.S. Supreme Court decision and holding make one a Natural Born Citizen. See this legal analysis article: http://puzo1.blogspot.com/2009/07/neither-14th-amendment-nor-wong-kim-ark.html

The document you cite is clearly modern, and obviously written by an idiot who can't seem to understand what Wong Kim Ark said.

Wong Kim Ark did *NOT* say "natural born." It said "citizen." And it relied on the 14th amendment to call Wong Kim Ark a "citizen."

The 14th amendment is a naturalization device. It doesn't create "natural born" citizens. It only creates "naturalized" citizens.

Therefore, this modern moron simply made the leap to call "citizen" and "natural born citizen" the same thing, and they are clearly not.

Just so much wasted time reading the gibberish people put out who don't know what they are talking about.
