Why do you want people with divided loyalties/multiple citizenship in the White House?

That’s precisely what the founders were excluding with the natural born citizen clause.

Same with McCain

I didn't say anything about what I want. And if you think what the Constitution says depends on how much you want a certain thing, well there's part of your problem.

No. Precisely what they were excluding is what they wrote in the text. Only natural born citizens qualify. They were excluding immigrants from the Presidency, because the alternative to getting your citizenship by birth is to get it by naturalization. There is no other way.
