Those are the Constitutional eligibility requirements for the office of President.

You must be a legal US citizen born in the US.

So to become the US President you must be a natural born citizen of the USA, be at least 35 when elected and have been a Resident within the USA for at least 14 years.

The Constitution requires that ; "No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
you must be over 35, lived in the U.S for 14 years, and be a natural born citizen Article II, Section I: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States."

Article II Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution states the following: No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States. From that you can see that the President must be 35 years of age and have been a natural-born citizen (meaning born in the U.S.A.). The language in the section above pertaining to 14 years a resident or a citizen at the time of adoption was a special case to handle recent citizens to the newly-formed country.
Art. II, Sec. 1: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States."

The United States Constitution says;"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."This is why only a natural born 'American' Citizen may become President. (not U.S. CITIZEN)The only other people who could become President were the ones who had already became a Citizen before the Constitution was adopted. None of those Citizens are still alive today, so now you must be natural born.
From the Constitution (Article 2, section 1, clause 5): "No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States." So natural born citizen, at least 35 years old, and a resident for 14 consecutive years. They also can't have been president for 2 terms already (22nd amendment)
Article 2 Section 1 of the US Constitution states: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States."
