Did you really just spew that stupid when it literally word for word says that the right of citizenship did "not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States"? Show me anywhere in the constitution where it says jus solis, even the 14th explicitly avoids the term. I’ll wait!
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
This is verbatim what JS means ('right of soil"). Regardless of parentage.
Spelled out by the US Dept of State:
a. U.S. citizenship may be acquired either at birth or through naturalization subsequent to birth. U.S. laws governing the acquisition of citizenship at birth embody two legal principles:
(1) Jus soli (the law of the soil) - a rule of common law under which the place of a person’s birth determines citizenship. In addition to common law, this principle is embodied in the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution...
Looks like you forgot that part…. Or did you conveniently try to leave out that jus soli doesn’t actually apply or children of diplomats from foreign nations would be US citizens? Oh wait, like you’re entire argument, you’ve been full of shit.

No, I just can't quote the whole text in a post. That's why I included the links.
And in no way that is detrimental to what the actual Constitution says and the US Dept of State clarifies as the law in their documents.
Jus Soli is the law in the US, with exceptions that confirm the rule.
I posted the text to the US Constitution and the text of the US Dept's "U.S. Citizenship and Nationality"manual.
You have made NO arguments and have backed them up with NOTHING.
This act defined citizenship by naturalization.
It said nothing about birthright and Jus Solis.

You argue like a school girl.
