Perhaps all true Dragonborns have the same aura about them, perhaps because they can reincarnate? Reincarnation wouldn't make sense, not just because of the Imperial bloodline, but also because Mirak never died, and yet there were Dragonborns like him after him. However, indeed it takes a true Dragonborn to start a new Empire. We don't know what kind of Dragonborns St. Alesia and Ramen were, but we do know Tiber Septim was trully a Dragonborn. Providing that, we can assume that each other founders of Empires were Dragonborns in the same sense as Tiber Septim. That would give Dragonborn in Skyrim much of legitimate claim for Ruby Throne. Although who knows, it might not be possible without amulet of kings. Although I think Dragonborn would have a better claim then a Dynasty of Colovian Warmongers, which Mede really are. What would you say? Oh and if you remember what Greybeards said, you would know that Dragonborn was also proclaimed Ysmir, Dragon of the North, and they said something about storm crown finding the right wearer. I am not sure if being Ysmir would give you any better claim on Imperial crown, or even the high king crown. But isn't that who used to rule the very first Empire? The one who descended from Atmorans I believe, forged their own Empire at one time, but they lost it and were reduced only to Skyrim. Correct me if I am not getting something right.
