          Nope. The only requirement is that the candidate was born in the states.

            No, it's not in the Constitution because the people who wrote it were not born here.  They had to be here a certain number of years to qualify for the office of the President, etc.  If you are born in the USA, you a natural born citizen regardless of your parents.
