Bizarre. But... If Austria denies his citizenship, he could change nationality and become the president! Just like Hitler did!


Nope. As U.S. law currently stands, a President can only be a person born in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Nobody born outside the U.S., including those who have rescinded their citizenship or had their citizenship rescinded by their native country, can be president of the U.S.

'Tis the law. Governors are a different thing. Just need to have a certain time period of legal citizenship.

Yeah yEah, we know, but I can totally see an amendment happening.


I was sort of joking, but I do see that too. It'll be extra-funny if Lou Ferrigno is the democratic candidate running against him.
