The founders recognized that congress may define at any time who can become a citizen and how they become a citizen;
The Founders never gave Congress the ability to define who can become a citizen, and the only ability it was given to determine HOW they became a citizen was by making a regular rule for immigration that the States were required to follow.
The federal government has no direct authority concerning citizenship.....period.
MT, thanks for the post in 62.You are a seeker of truth, not a nitpicker.
In 63, i went back and saw that you were highlighting what the author of the article I referenced highlighted.
What I like is that after that sentence he said that the definition of who was eligible for President was never in doubt as it had been documented in the Constitution.
