I just looked at this the other day and if I recall correctly...

To be President you must have been born in the U.S. OR be an US Citizen in which case at least one of your parents has to have been a US Citizen.

If you are a US Citizen by birth (born outside the country to US citizen(s) you must have lived in the US for the past 14 years (I think it was 14). You must also be at least thirty-five years of age.

I didn't look it up again, but am fairly sure that is accurate.

(Assuming it is, I wonder if your parents were of differing citizenship (ie mom is American, dad is German or whatever) which may give you dual citizenship -- can someone with dual citizenship be President?
