Read this link:This does not appear to say that Arthur hid anything. Further, it's not clear that the Secretary of State or the State Department has the power to interpret the Constitution authoritatively. Generally that power is thought to reside in the judicial branch, not the executive.
Also, it would be nice if you admitted that the Cong Globe was the documentation of Congressional debates where people said all sorts of things. These debate are also not often considered to be authoritative interpretations of the Constitution. So, you quote from the Congressional Globe doesn't really resolve a thing.
The Eisenhower case proves that a simple birth certificate is ample to prove one's eligibility to be PotUSA.
