Brief note: More precisely, "natural-born" means a person is a U.S. citizen at birth (usually by being born in the U.S. or born abroad to U.S. citizen parents); a naturalized citizen is someone who was born a foreign national and later became a U.S. citizen through the legal naturalization process.
