Ahhh... but Jefferson was different. He was not born a dual citizen with France. He was a naturalized French citizen, and he naturalized after the War of Independence as an adult, just a few months before the Constitution was written.

So much for the Framer's concern with "dual allegiances." They even voted for him.

You still haven’t absorbed the Grandfather Clause:

“...or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution...”

The U.S. Constitution was adopted in 1787. ANYONE who was a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of the U.S. Constitution was allowed to be President. Jefferson fell under the Grandfather Clause. Obama, however, doesn’t fall under the Grandfather Clause unless he is over 200 years old. He might be, though, because we have yet to see his long-form birth certificate.

:^)

Cheers
