I am not an expert on the law but it SHOULD disqualify him because we don’t need a president who might have even a small feeling of allegiance to another country.

Would you disqualify a Jewish candidate for president for fear that they might have a small feeling of allegiance towards Israel?

Only if they hold or have held Israeli citizenship! This is why the constitution says “natural born” rather than just requiring citizenship, it is to avoid conflicting loyalty.
