Re: Natural born citizen

Yes, the U.S. and many other countries in the Americas have birthright citizenship, and such people would be eligible to be president. The restriction basically translates to "You have to have been a citizen of the U.S. from the time of your birth. If you were naturalized, go away". Being born outside the country but to parents who bestow U.S. citizenship also qualifies someone under the restriction.
