Again, better focus supported my original inclination and showed a strong argument for the second comma being not just correct to be there but also not needed. First, for the argument that the part "at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution" could be understood to also apply on the "natural born Citizen" one could ask why then the first comma was used? This counter argument will be strengthened by seeing the importance of the purpose the second comma could be serving. The second comma supports that the description" at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution" applies to being a Citizen and not to "United States". Without this comma it could be argued that it is always permitted for person who is not a "natural born Citizen" to become the President of the country if he is from one of the States that formed the "United States" during the Adoption of the Constitution.
