What is a Natural Born Citizen of the United States?
http://www.greschak.com/essays/natborn/ [Sadly, although this link still works, the website appears to have been hijacked. I'm looking another source for John Greschak's excellent essay.]
Absolute proof the Founders knew and accepted Vattel`s French "naturels" to mean "natural born"
Also see https://fam.state.gov/FAM/08FAM/08FAM030101.html. Scroll down to the heading in bold, "8 FAM 301.1-3 Not Included in theMeaning of "In the United States"" and see "c. (1)" for the following text...
"Despite widespread popular belief, U.S. military installations abroad and U.S. diplomatic or consular facilities abroad are not part of the United States within the meaning of the 14th Amendment. A child born on the premises of such a facility is not born in the United States and does not acquire U.S. citizenship by reason of birth."
Despite ALL the above proof that in order to be a natural born citizen of the USA, one must be born on US soil and to TWO US citizen parents, SOME people misinterpret (or misrepresent) Vattel's definition to mean the citizenship of a father alone is what determines who becomes a natural born citizen. In other words, some claim that a child is a natural born citizen of whatever country the father is a citizen of and that neither the mother's citizenship nor the location of birth matters at ALL.
