You do understand that the founders who became president were constitutionally grandfathered in, right? No one alive today though is quite old enough to be under that clause.
Jeff makes up what he wants to believe as he goes along. He's been told a hundred times that the founders were grandfathered in, but he prefers to believe the IDIOT theory put out by Dr. Conspiracy. (Democrat Kook, Nut burger.)
Jeff believes that all the founders WERE "natural born citizens" of the United States of America. That the nation didn't exist when they were born is simply not a problem for Lunatic whack jobs like Jeff and Dr. Conspiracy.
So in their twisted little Bizzaro world, George Washington is BOTH a "natural born subject" of King George III, (shown below) and he is ALSO a "natural born citizen" of the United States of America. That Grandfather clause in Article II? That was just put there as a favor to Alexander Hamilton and other foreign born friends of the founders.
Yes, they really are THAT stupid.
No, I prefer to believe the historians quoted in post #321.
Yaelle, I added some more from my earlier post. All are in agreement that the purpose of the grandfather clause was not what DiogenesLamp adamantly claims it was.
