“Vattel didn't write anything that would render McCain not a natural born citizen. The writers of our “uniform rules of naturalization” did that.”

OK then. According to Vattel - McCain would be a natural born citizen.

So to say McCain is not is to abandon Vattel and his philosophy.

Where in U.S. law do you get that McCain would be anything other than a natural born citizen?

If you are not going by U.S. law OR Vattel - then by what definition is McCain anything other than a natural born citizen?

Where is natural born citizen defined such that McCain would not qualify?
