Anyone deemed to be a natural born citizen by Congressional statute is Constitutionally a NBC. The Constitution gave Congress sole authority to define citizenship in the Citizenship Clause.

I agree that Congress has such authority. SCOTUS has not, however, issued an opinion on the matter of those born abroad to citizen parents.
