This little girl is not a foreigner. She’s American. She has never known any other language beside English.

Even so, I hardly think the reasoning behind either Jay’s or Story’s opinion holds water.

Thankfully, it’s not your call. The founding fathers took a look at the issue and wisely laid down a bright-line requirement for the Presidency so as to prevent foreign intrigues against the United States.

And by the way, the opinion on the natural born requirement wasn’t held by just Jay and Story. It was held by Hamilton and Madison and Washington amongst many others.

Ahem, are you saying that John Jay has less understanding of the Constitution than a ten year old kid?
