I don’t think that the issue of dual citizenship ever crossed their minds. Thomas Jefferson was even a naturalized citizen of France when he became President, and that didn’t seem to bother anybody.
Oh, for Pete’s sake! Read the Constitution (Article II, Section 1, Clause 5):
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

I do not get your point at all. Your quotation from the Constitution never mentions dual citizenship once.
