No US Supreme Court decision has found a child born to one or two alien parents to be an Article II natural born Citizen.

No US Supreme Court decision has found a child born to one or two alien parents to be an Article II natural born Citizen.


And the current Supreme Court has refused to even look into the issue while the current Chief Justice administered the Oath of Office to an individual who was born of one US citizen parent.

In my humble opinion, there is one overriding, serious Constitutional issue that I wish the current High Court would address with a definitive, precedent setting opinion: is there any difference between an Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 “natural born citizen” and a 14th Amendment & US Code TITLE 8, CHAPTER 12, SUBCHAPTER III, Part I, Section 1401 “Citizen of the United States-at-birth.?”
If the Supremes could resolve that question, I’d be happy.

WKA didn’t outright declare it, but their reasoning ends up there. It would have been better if the Supreme Court had taken the case offered in Dec 2008 and made a formal, official ruling NLT 20 Jan 2009.
