AH I see your point. To my knowledge the baby does not have to be born on US soil. The instant the baby is born in a foreign country, he or she is a US citizen and his or her parents can go to the embassy and get a passport. Based on that, I would say there is not requirement to be born on the soil. For example, perhaps the child was born in England when his mother and father are there working at the state dept. Maybe his dad is a diplomat. That child would not be ineligable to be president in my understanding. I wonder if there was ever a president or an issue in the past that could clear it up. I bet Negative could find it. 
edit// actually there are many resources. Heres is the first I found...
