It doesn’t mean what you think.

I believe the original intent and the intent now is that “natural born citizen” means that a person who is a citizen at the moment of their birth. It does not mean they are citizen only by virtue of being born in this country. That is a big misconception.

I am not the one who has the misconception. Natural born is akin to a birthright. Only two citizen parents giving birth to a child on US soil makes anyone natural born.

No act of congress or precedent out of a court can change natural born.

Anchor babies are not natural born.

***********************************

The original intent was no divided allegiance or loyalties.
Born here of citizen parents.
No other possibility, naturally a US citizen.
The new definition is simply born a citizen, even if only on one’s mother’s side, which makes every anchor baby
and Winston Churchill eligible.
