I was being sarcastic. TGN made the point that if the US didn’t restrict the presidency to natural borns, the FF we’re concerned that they might end up with a head of state who was more sympathetic to Britain than to the US, since all Americans at that time were recently British subjects.

I was pointing out that Ireland was in precisely the same situation in 1922, but didn’t feel the need to restrict political offices to natural born citizens.

And Ireland had been subject to British rule long before 1801.

Sorry, I didn't get that.  Should have read a few more posts.  FWIW there are people here who are open to the idea of changing the Constitution but that would be an uphill battle.
