...the natural-born, two citizen parents clause was written into the Constitution -- to prevent the divided loyalty that may result when one parent is a citizen of a foreign country.

Exactly! I was born a citizen in NYC and although one of my parent's family has been in the country since the early 1800's, the other parent was a legal resident green card. Although born a citizen, I am eligible for dual passports, and not eligible to run for president.
