The Confederate Constitution states that:
In a CS victory TL, there would probably be many thousands of men from Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland who would make their homes in the Confederacy if their states had ended up remaining part of the Union. Would this clause prohibit such from seeking the CSA Presidency until 14 years had passed?
No person except a natural-born citizen of the Confederate States, or a citizen thereof, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, or a citizen thereof born in the United States prior to the 20th of December, 1860, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the limits of the Confederate States, as they may exist at the time of his election.
