Practically anyone born in the USA. But if you're not born in the USA, you can't. Now does that accord with the principle of equality (or for the principle of merit for that matter)? Does it even accord with common sense?

So do you think that the Constitution ought to be amended so that US citizens who were not born here can make a bid for President?
