They might acquire status as citizens but they do not acquire status as natural born cititizens.

That is your opinion. We don't differentiate right now between jus solis and jus sanguinis citizenship. If you qualify under either one, you can vote, get a passport, etc. We need to go to SCOTUS and get this settled once and for all. The only real distinction now is between naturalized citizens and those who gain citizenship automatically thru either blood or place of birth.

I and my wife have passports going back years. My wife who is natualized USA citizen and I both had to give birth certificates that had place of birth and parents. So for us it is not just an opinion. I have also had employment,private and government that required showing birth/nationality of my parents and their citizenship, they were not citizens. The SC apparently doesn’t want to touch the issue with any length of a Constitutional pole. The best bet as for me is at the state level. I am hoping there are more than one state which can hold to what the Founding Fathers expressed as their intent as to securing allegience to the USA and It’s Constitution. All branches of the Federal government apparently are numbed by that intent.
