Yes. It's not hard.
All you have to do is accept that citizenship in the United States was defined a good deal like it was in our mother country, England, and that "natural born citizen" really means "citizen at or by birth."
There is some indication that while the status of persons born on the soil (of both England and America) was never subject to any control of the legislature, it was different with those born to citizens abroad.
By this understanding, Congress has the authority to define who is and is not a citizen by birth (or a "natural born citizen") in the sole case of those born to American citizens abroad.
It's not that hard.
Your patronizing tone is offensive, and if you’ve such great sources that you’ve read on the subject, I’d think you’d give me a better one than you did.

Let us ponder for a moment, what you are saying. If you understood what I said correctly, you are telling me that a natural born citizen can lose his citizenship merely by failing to live in the United States. Does this correctly represent your opinion?
I'll reiterate for clarity. You are saying that a "natural born citizen" can lose their citizenship by failing to reside inside the United States.
Correct me if I am misstating your opinion.
