The point stands. At least the first 3 presidents were NOT native born American citizens. I am not arguing the constitution here just the reality of the circumstances. You have repeatedly assured everyone that you are not anti-immigrant, just anti-illegal immigrant but then you blast a conservative republican because he does not view naturalized citizens as 2nd class. Your facade is crumbling.

Your facade is dissembling.

The first several President who were born before the adoption of the Constitution weren't immigrants, your attempt to muddle the matter notwithstanding. However, they understood the danger of having an entire branch of the federal government held in the hands of a single individual who was not a natural born citizen or a citizen at the time of the adoption of the Constitution.

Therefore, to support Article II. Section 1, Clause 5, as written, is hardly an "anti-immigrant" position, despite the hiked-skirt hyperbole of the Democrats and a few Republicans.

What about the son of an immigrant? How many generations has to pass before they are "real 'muricans" ?
