Agreed...
'Born in the USA' is a slam dunk.
Native-born clone? You're a citizen... Maybe a cutting-edge-weird citizen, but a citizen nonetheless.
The tempest in a teapot here stems from the purported clone's birth in a foreign clime... To a US citizen.
We pay these idiots to do their job, with sufficient intelligence and clarity of mind so that they don't go into a loop when presented with a new wrinkle of (what will someday be known to be) fairly minor proportions.
Human cloning will happen, even if this story turns out to have been bogus.
It's not the Xeroxing of a mind or a soul. It's merely the encore of a genome.
It's just technology, gadgetry... Not an evil (like Abortion) in and of itself.
The smart monkeys will stay as far as they can ahead of the curve and try to maximize the good while minimizing the evil that flows from it.
