'Perhaps it is time to end the ban on foreign born competition for our most important office.'
Article ll Section I of the U.S. Constitution sets only three limitations on who can become president: 1. he or she must be 35 years of age; 2. must have resided for 14 years in the United States; 3. he or she must be a “Natural” born citizen.

Jennifer Granholm of Michigan were both prohibited from running for president despite their popularity because neither was born in the United States. Tucson’s Congressman Juan Ciscomani who was born in Mexico is also barred from running, despite his rising status in the Republican Party.
By contrast, only 1 of 100 Senators are not natural born citizens, and only 16 or 3% of our members of Congress are naturalized citizens, like Tucson’s congressman.
