This was part of Bayard's discussion of qualifications to be President and Presidential eligibility.
Bayard's exposition of the Constitution was read and approved by the Great Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Marshall, by the legendary Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, and by the famous Chancellor James Kent, as well as other legal experts of the early United States.
Bayard’s opinion renders moot the provison of ‘natural born citizen’ with the same effect that Jefferson’s letter to the Danbury Baptists created the ‘separation of church and state’ as it is used by secularists in the modern day.
Both are extraconstitutional arguments devoid of Constitutional authority.
You may as well tell me how the Bible approves of gay marriage because some lesbian college professor said so.
