I'm not for this, but on another forum I frequent, someone brought up a very good point.
An Iranian Woman can fly into Detroit on a visitors Visa, Drop child, he becomes a citizen, she goes back to Iran for 35 years. That Kid is eligable to become president. Someone who came to this country willingly, spent his life here and becomes a citizen isn't. There's something very wrong with that picture.

But, you have to think the kid will either have assimilated as he grows up and becomes (what is it) 40 years old. Either that or he will be so extreme that he can not be elected. There is a pretty good vetting process through the political parties.

Yes. Bestowing citizenship based merely on the physical location of birth rather than the status of the parents is the problem.
