Does this mean what it says, or not, about the "creation" of a new kind of citizen?

Question

"The citizen was not, under the theory of State's rights, in contact with the National Government. He owed allegiance to his State, and the State dealt with the Nation. That theory was definitely set aside by this [14th] Amendment, which made all persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof citizen of both the Nation and the State, owing allegiance to both authorities. James Wilson of Pennsylvania stated this doctrine clearly in the Constitutional Convention."

Constitution of the United States: Its Sources and Application: Thomas James Horton

Answer 1

let me take all the issues for the good and on positive side

Answer 2

The Thirteenth Amendment abolished slavery, but didn't  establish legal status of former slaves under federal and state laws.  This left them with no protection against individual states' laws that quickly began to be implemented, that still embraced slavery.  The Fourteenth Amendment granted former slaves not only citizenship - but "...equal protection of the laws...".  Previous to this - the granting of citizenship was left to the states.  The 14th (for the first time in the Constitution) defined both state and national citizenship.

Answer 3

I am not clear whether it is suggesting "creation" of a new kind of citizenship, or merely saying that the passage of the 14th Amendment definitely implied a choice between two competing notions of the relationship between citizens and the federal government. The tension between those two theories might have been there all along, unresolved. The amendment simply settled the question and repudiated the State's rights notion of national citizenship.

Possibly because of the limited scope of your quote, I'm entirely unclear which doctrine (that is, which of those two theories) James Wilson sided with. But the 14th Amendment was proposed about 79 years after the Constitutional Convention.

(Wilson, incidentally, also cast the crucial deciding vote on the Declaration of Independence in 1776.)
