    Not born in the US, so he’s ineligible. Of course he’s also super rich so…

      Admendments are a thing… just bribe 2/3 of each house and 3/4 of state legislatures… Or just do a coup

      That has never really been tested so there is no guarantee that a republican-held Supreme Court would find this interpretation of the constitution.

      That doesn’t make you ineligible. Ted Cruz was born in Canada but could and did run to be a presidential candidate. The rule is:

      Be a natural-born citizen of the United States

      That could mean that one or both of your parents are US citizens giving you a US citizenship at birth. It’s just one more reason the whole Obama birther thing was nonsense, his mom is a US citizen so it wouldn’t matter where he was born.

      That said, Elon also does not meet that requirement.
