Of course, perhaps the whole natural born thing means no caesarian-birth candidates!

Yeah, right. Why should I reply to such an ignorant post. (WTF did John Jay know? I mean he's just one of the authors of the Federalist Papers.)

Your claim of ignorance just reveals your own. Every reply of yours has bolstered my point, so feel free to do so or not.

He knew that he didn't think it wise to allow anyone but a natural born citizen to be the commander in chief of the American army.

And that means that only those who obtained their US citizenship by birth ("natural born") could hold the office of President, not someone who got it later ("naturalized").

I think it was wise that advice was incorporated. You can have whatever opinion you want.
