And again...(*sigh*)

Defining “citizen at birth” doesn’t help to define “natural born citizen”.

The only gap to be found is in your knowledge, not in the Constitution. The term had a definition in 1787, and the framers understood it. You seem to think they were writing nonsense, which had to be cleared up later.

No, the framers and ratifiers knew the definition. Just because you don't doesn't mean you can substitute another. You can't amend the Constitution all by yourself.

Yeah.....It takes the Supreme Court, ignoring the obvious, to change the Constitution to enable this goofball to be in office.
