I do have all 12 Jack Ryan books in two 6-book ebook omnibuses, if one is inclined to dive in and make notes.

Rainbow Six wasn't a Jack Ryan novel, even though I believe they're in a shared universe. But what I recall is there was a novel with some sort of crisis, which got resolved, then a random subplot where a Japanese kamikaze passenger plane killed the President, then pandemic book

Pandemic is Executive Orders. The omnibuses include both Rainbow Six and Without Remorse in the chronological order, so *shrug*.

Ah, ok, so it's Debt of Honor (1994) with the absurd Japanese-do-9/11 plot, and then Executive Orders (1996), where Jack Ryan has to defend Iraq from invasion after Saddam is assassinated and the Iranians cause a pandemic.

Yup, yup. Kind of eerie, to be mid-90s stuff, when they have such a mid-00s/TV series 24 vibe.

Only the ones who are natural born citizens over the age of 35 with 14 years of residency in the US, right?

I didn't know there was a 14 year US residency requirement. Are you sure about that?

Hunh. I thought they had to be local-born no matter what. Go figure.

They do, you have to BOTH be natural born AND have been a resident for 14 years (so if you were born here but moved as a child and grew up in another country you're ineligible)

BUT it's probably the case (only called into question recently, by Trump/birthers) that you can be the President if you were a birthright citizen born to US citizens abroad

I believe there was at least one President who this actually applied to, although I could be wrong, but if so it was in a country that didn't automatically grant citizenship to people born there.
