You just indicated your belief the US Constitution is just a tool to use to get your way as the need may arise. All I have left is principle.

No, I just explained to you that our Founding Fathers delegated to electors the job of selecting presidents and weighing their qualifications. They could have prescribed a precise definition of natural born citizen had they wanted to, but they chose to leave such matters to the electors. That is the rule of law.

Those who don't like our Constitution should try to amend it.

You sound just like a gun grabber saying the Founding Fathers could have prescribed a precise definition of "A well regulated Militia". Unlike you, I know that the US Constitution has no ambiguity. Natural Born could not be any more clear that the term natural fool.
