The natural born clause was always meant to address divided loyalties at birth. Since Obama’s father was a British royal subject at the time of birth, Obama can not be a natural born citizen.

Is loyalty to a country inherited or something that's freely given?

Hint, we have a pledge of allegiance.

Is the son of King George, born to an American mother, loyal to America? Perhaps, but the founders decided it was too great a risk for the highest office of the land. Citizen yes, natural born citizen no.
