I heard the last Donofrio interview and he said that McCain is also not eligible. I looked at my pocket Constitution and 'natural born' isn't defined. I suppose everyone knew what it meant at the time it was written. The Supreme Court could study the matter and decide on the real meaning of 'natural born.' If both are disqualified, then I suppose the whole election would be invalid. Except you, everyone posting here is ignoring the fact that McCain is also included in the filing.
I thought the definition of "natural born" had been previously defined.

Maybe we'll find out what 'natural born' really means after all of this is worked out. Certainly, born in the US of parents who are also citizens qualifies as 'natural born.' Are there other cases that lead to natural born citizenship? Maybe a Google search of scanned books published in the 1700s might have something of interest.
