No where does it say that the child of two American citizens is not a natural born US citizen.

If you can find ANY federal law that says this, than I will concede my case, but I really doubt there is any such law. I for one can not find any.

How do you define "naturally born" and "naturally born US citizen"?

If you define the 2nd term as being born in the the US, why do you definie it that way? What part of the constitution, what law, what supreme court decision, do you use to support that interpretation.

Sons and daughters of diplomats from other countries, who are born in the US are not naturally born US citizens. They are not citizens at birth (and will not be citizens at all unless they are naturalized).

But children of US citizens are citizens from birth wherever they are born, and thus they are naturally born as US citizens.
