Minor is an 1874 case. Schneider v Rusk is a 1964 which clearly outlines the rights and obligations of the legislature with respect to naturalization and the rights delineated in the Constitution with respect to US citizenship.

It is clear in subsequent case law Natural Born Citizen status is undefined and SCOTUS has determined it can only be defined with a Constitutional Amendment.

Leo ignores case law in the late 20th Century because it doesn’t fit his agenda.

Schneider v Rusk respects that natural-born citizens are distinct from other types of citizenship. This doesn’t promote whatever point of view you have at all.
