you can ignore the Natural Born Citizen phrase all you want, but the founders put that in there for a reason, which you can Google if you so desire. if you make Ted Cruz or Mario Rubio president, doubling down on the mistake of making Barack Obama president, what's to stop president Xi of China having a son with an American wife, who then gets floated by the CFR as our next puppet-in-chief? and on the Republican ticket, one of Putin's daughters? can you perhaps see some potential for divided loyalties?
as an anarchist, I don't respect nation states or borders anyway, but I have to admit that, pragmatically, having even the shell of a constitutional republic to call home gives me at little sense of protection from tyranny. if people continue to let the crooks in Washington, DC have their way with impunity, though, even that shell will dissolve into nothingness.
