I'm not being Sarcastic, making a joke, neither meant disrespect. Though I'm taking a humorous look at the Issue.

This is what the Constitution says in Article II Section I. And I quote in part.
"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;..."

The intended Humor is in the following.
Now, Most human beings like ALL other Creatures are born Through a Natural Process or Naturally. Some people in the Modern World were born via C-Section aka. a Cesarean procedure. So I'm guessing that with all the Fuss made and suspicions brought about the current POTUS not being a born citizen. Then maybe someone born via C-Section could also be in jeopardy of not being allowed to be POTUS, 'cause it was "NOT" the Natural but a Medical way. Then there's the other question that comes to mind; What about those "conceived" in Vitro or by Artificial Insemination?

JUST ASKING!

I'm a natural born citizen. My father was stationed in England where he met my mom, and I was born in London England. My original birth certificate, issued by the US Embassy, reads that I'm a 'Child born Abroad of American Citizen', and I have two certificates of birth issued by the US State Department. What this all boils down to is, if I had been so inclined, I could have run for President ... but that's such a limiting thing, since the most I could have done was 10 years under extremely special circumstances ... I much preferred that I served the United States for 22 years as a military service member!

As for your side exploration regarding method of birth, it's not a factor in the equation for becoming POTUS ... but your question did make me wonder enough to raise an alternative interesting question... what about anchor babies? Is it potentially possible that a future POTUS might have been born here only because her or his parents, came to the US illegally?
