Are you a US citizen? Then yeah. You are qualified to be the president.

This is inaccurate. Eligibility requires that one be born a citizen. All children born in the United States acquire citizenship at birth unless immune from our laws, such as the children of accredited diplomats or visiting royalty.

George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Chester Arthur, Barack Obama, and Kamala Harris did not have two citizen parents.

A naturalized citizen is not eligible to be President. Naturalization only occurs subsequent to birth. To be eligible, one must be an alien, lawfully present in the United States.
