I take your point, but that is the entire issue, isn’t it? To what extent did the 14th Amendment affect the original language and framers’ intent? I don’t think that the courts want to resolve the issue and the politicians don’t want to touch it with a ten foot pole.

A number of threads on FR have cited references in the Congressional record to statements by the principal framers of the Fourteenth Amendment in which they make clear that the Amendment does not effect the presidential eligibility requirement.
