The notion that the laws of a foreign country can control eligibility for office in the United States is a little far fetched.

I’m thinking that the laws of a foreign country never crossed my mind and would not have been a concern for me.

It is dual loyalties that would be an issue. This is why the natural born citizen clause was written. The framers wanted to be certain there would be no person holding that office with a hint of loyalty to the king of England.
