Andrew Jackson
Born: Mar. 15, 1767, in the frontier region known as the Waxhaws along the border between North and South Carolina. Although both states claim Jackson's birthplace, most modern authorities place it in South Carolina. Jackson was the first president to be born in a log cabin or west of the Appalachian Mountains.
Controversial point: Allan W. Eckert, in his book The Frontiersman, contends that it is highly probable Jackson was not born in the U.S. According to several people who knew Jackson personally, including a woman who claimed to have delivered him, he was born in 1755 aboard a ship bound for America from Ireland. The scarcity of verifiable information about the early part of his life lends credence to this story. If it is true that he was born at sea, Jackson would have had to maintain that he was born on American soil in order to be eligible to run for the presidency.
This historian may be highly educated, but he apparently has never read the Constitution
Article 2, Section 1.5: No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Jackson was most definitely a citizen when the Constitution was adopted in 1787. Therefore he was fully eligible to be president.
It also seems highly unlikely he was 12 years older than he claimed. Then he would have been fully grown during the Revolution, not a young teenager as is well known.
AJ's birthplace is also not west of the Appalachians. It's not far from Charlotte.
