I think people with dual citizenship today should be disqualified from the Presidency. They are more likely to give preference to another country than where someone happened to be born because it was their decision.

If you're talking about anyone who has potential dual citizenship that they've not exercised, I can't agree with you. That would exclude every American Jew, after all, since they all have the right to apply for an Israeli passport.

If you're talking about people who, as adults, choose to exercise or obtain dual citizenship, then I agree with you. That's a good idea, although we'll need a Constitutional amendment for it.
