You state:

“I care what the Founders thought and meant”

Do you honestly think the founders wanted a future president to be born with ties to a foreign sovereignty, especially Great Britain, a country America fought against for it’s independence? Use common sense and think rationally.

He has no common sense and will never think rationally. Leftist POS trolls are here to push an agenda, not to think rationally.

Obviously, that was simply not their concern.

Have you not followed the conversation? Three of our first four Presidents were French citizens, WHILE they were President.

George Washington. President of the United States and citizen of France.

Thomas Jefferson. President of the United States and citizen of France. For his entire Presidency.

James Madison. President of the United States and citizen of France. For his entire Presidency, as well.

They simply had no fear of children with non-citizen parents.

Nor did they have any fear of children carried abroad and raised in foreign countries.

It just wasn't a concern.

Do you know what they actually feared?

They feared foreign royalty sweeping in here from other countries to take over.

Not coming here to have babies, and then their babies becoming President 50 years from now.

That's just stupid, even today.

AND... they feared rich foreigners coming over and having lunch with totally native US politicians, and bribing them for favorable treatment.

THAT's what they were concerned about.
