But it is undeniable that those who ratified the constituion knew this:

A born British Subject would not be eligible for the presidency.

Actually, our first 10 or so Presidents were all born British Subjects.

I don't believe any rational legislator/political thinker would define citizenship for their country based on how other nations determine citizenship for their country at a given time. That makes your citizenship laws dependent upon the whims of other nations, which is just plain stupid.
