From The Constitution of the United States of America:
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.
From the Herald News:
A local man's quest to enable foreign-born citizens to run for president appears to have gained some momentum with support this week by conservative Sen. Orrin G. Hatch, R-Utah.
