Curious here. You are asserting that a person has to be born in the United States to be trusted, correct? What if the person was born overseas to a military father and spent half of his/her life overseas due to extended deployments? Can that person be trusted?

What about the person born in Britain to British and American parents who immigrated to the United States within two weeks of the child's birth?

Exactly what are the limitations on your crass xenophobic generalizations?

A naturalized citizen could be very trustworthy and a 44 year old flaming liberal could become a qualified conservative nominee for SCOTUS at 45 years of age but why promote that person over someone who has been a solid conservative for with a conservative record when "loyal conservatism" is the main concern? Why promote a naturalized citizen over someone who was born in the US if the top concern is loyalty to the US?

Do you believe the constitution is xenophobic? There must be naturalized citizens who would make a fine President, no?
