By John White President Biden was asked recently what he would do if he and Kamala Harris have a fundamental disagreement based on a moral principle. Biden said he’d do what he’d told President Obama earlier: “I’ll develop some disease and say I have to resign.” Whether Biden was serious or not, his remark raises an important constitutional issue. If he were to resign or die in office, is Harris legally qualified to succeed him? The answer is: No, she is not. The Constitution requires the president be a “natural born citizen,” meaning someone who is born in this country of parents who are U.S. citizens. That legal term is different from “citizen,” as shown in Articles 1, 3, and 4 of the Constitution, which say senators and representatives can just be citizens while the president must be a natural born citizen. All other officers of the federal government can be born abroad to U.S. citizens or can even be naturalized citizens them
