Petition: to remove Elon Musk's canadian citizenship

Maybe this is where all the 51st state talk is coming from. If Canada joins the USA then he'll suddenly be eligible to officially become president.
How is this not higher up. It makes way too much sense.
Elon Musk was not born in Canada. He is South African. A lot else about him should make sense once you realize that.
Isn't he already the president, well I mean at least pulling all the strings with no repercussions? Mind you the Donvict doesn't seem to have any repercussions yet.
Don't you have to be born in the US to become president there?
No. Just be a natural born citizen and to have been a resident for the past 14 years. Natural born citizens are those with birthright citizenship, and people who are the children of citizens have birthright citizenship, no matter where they are born.
Elon is a heridatary citizen of Canada, and so would be a natural born citizen of the US if we joined the union.
Seems the consensus now is a natural born citizen is one with birthright citizenship; so anyone born to a US citizen counts as well.
If the USA successfully annexes Canada Musk would qualify since he was born to a Canadian citizen who would now be a US citizen.
I moved my comment to below this one…
To be “natural born”, you have to be born either inside the United States or to somebody that was a US citizen at the time.
If you have 11 children and become a US citizen, your children are not automatically citizens as well. They have to apply.
Technically, the constitution doesn't define "natural born", and we've seen how little this administration cares about even the parts it does define.
