-- The Constitution has not been amended to allow for foreign born citizens to become president or vice-president. --

Amendment is not the only way to accomplish the objective. Neglect, pretending the clause isn't there, claiming that birth abroad qualifies, those get to the same point.

Congress has already held that a dual citizen at birth can be a natural born citizen (Obama), why should the place of birth or place of being reared or allegiance of the parents matter at all?

The deciders of this issue (Congress and the courts) have decided. It's over but for the wearing down of objectors.

“claiming that birth abroad qualifies”

Birth abroad DOES qualify.

The same people who wrote the Constitution enacted a law in 1790 defining natural born citizen to include those born abroad to US citizen parents.

You keep trying to twist reality to fit into your preconceived ideas, opinions, and assumptions.

From 1790, it has always been clear that a person born abroad is a natural born citizen if one or more of t heir parents is a natural born citizen.
