A recent thread on natural born citizenship had over 300 replies.
This subject has been discussed quite a bit, here on Free Republic.
There is no Free Republic consensus on this subject.
I think you are right that there is no consensus.
But the law does not require consensus. A baby is a natural born citizen of the US if 2 things exist:
1) The baby is born on US soil to parents who are US citizens, or if not US citizens, are under the jurisdiction of the US.
2) The baby is born on US soil at that time NOT under the control / jurisdiction of a hostile military presence.
Item 2 happened in WW II when Japanese troops temporarily occupied Aleutian Islands.
Item 1 depends on soil and jurisdiction and the only way foreign citizen parents are not under the jurisdiction of the US when on US soil is if they have presented diplomatic credentials to the US State Dept.
Jurisdiction: the territory or sphere of activity over which the legal authority of a court or other institution extends
That means US soil. And no diplomatic credentials.
There is nothing more to debate.
