Yeah, well BHO isn’t a natural born citizen and he has been usurping the office for almost eight years.

True, but this isn't about constitutional eligibility.

I think it is.

The Constitution explicitly states the requirements to be elected President. One may not add, remove, or modify any of that without a Constitutional amendment.

Do you think a statute could require that a person be 40 years of age or only 30 in order to be President? Of course not. The enumeration of requirements to be President takes the issue out of the hands of Congress.
