He was born in Austria.
Our president elects must be natural born U.S. citizens.

Because he wasn't born in the US. Now Osama Bin Laden's nephew was born in the US (there were a slew of Bin Ladens living here in the US, maybe still are) and is therefore, automatically a US citizen , can he become president?

The Constitution of the US states that the President has to be born in the US.

Because he is a naturalized citizen. The Constitution specifically forbids anyone from becoming president who is not a natural born citizen.

He's a naturalized citizen. He shouldn't even be that, because he overstayed his visa and should've been deported.
Only people born as citizens of the US can become president. This is a good thing, because the governator doesn't have a clue about this country, just his own needs and desires.
