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.

I got back from living in Germany March 3, 1993 so I have only been living back the States for 11 1/2 years.

DAMN!

Well there is always 2008.

1. The fourteen years part doesn't mean crap -
Eisenhower was out of the country for many many years.

3. That was a topic of discussion back in the Ike days but
got about as far as the Cheney/Bush same state issue - nowhere.
