The Times Goofs Again

Jim Geraghty of National Review’s Campaign Spot points out how the Times inadvertently seems to argue Barack Obama isn’t eligible to be president either. Neither is anyone else born in Alaska or Hawaii.
I also note the inane opening sentence: "The question has nagged at the parents of Americans born outside the continental United States for generations: Dare their children aspire to grow up and become president?"Uh, if there's an issue of being outside the continental United States (a blatant misreading of the Constitution) what does that say about the likely Democratic nominee who was born in Hawaii? (Merriam-Webster definition: being the part of the United States on the North American continent; also : being the part of the United States comprising the lower 48 states.)
So does this mean it’s going to be Hillary versus Huckabee?
