The Founding Fathers felt that the office of the Presidency should be held only by native-born American citzens. They had their reasons for putting that clause in and so far I haven't seen anything that makes me doubt their wisdom.

They wanted to do the same for Henry Kissinger once upon a time. The rule is there for a purpose. I believe the founders meant what they wrote. Leave it alone. Sorry Arnold, run for the House or the Senate.

We have enough people selling this country out without having a president who has another homeland.

Since Hatch is for it, it can't be a good idea.

All the snotdrippin' idiots I know are native born.

This is an archaic rule that has no merit in a nation of immigrants.

We need to get rid of all things that make us different so that we can slip into oblivion and become nothing!

One word.



NO



The Founding Fathers took the time to make the rules for America. We will play by them, defend them and die by them.

"All the snotdrippin' idiots I know are native born. "

Then we've got enough of a candidate pool to prevent the need from making it bigger.
