Looking at it from the opposite side, I think I'm very fair and the least bit xenophobic.

If I went to Germany and no matter how amazing my skills are, I wouldn't feel it was the proper thing to do to run as Chancellor. I would feel uncomfortable with the idea of ruling Germans when somebody born and raised in Germany could have the position. It's as if I would be displacing somebody else (a German) of the highest office in the land.

It's difficult to express. Let's say you have two men of equal ability to be President. One is born and raised in the country and the other is not. Who do you choose? My answer is the one born and raised in the country. Not a coin toss.

I will have to read about this issue more because although my answers may not seems satisfactory, I would venture to say there are probably some very good reasons why that legislation is written, that is neither discriminatory in intent nor xenophobic in execution.
