I wish people would stop calling them leaders.
They are supposed to be representatives.
I wouldn't follow those folks any place.
I don't live in a lot of places. For example, I don't live in Azerbaijan. Nor do I live in Connecticut. So any "public official" or "elected representative" in Connecticut is just as much a "dual-citizenship foreigner" to me regardless of whether his forebears came over on the Mayflower or he (or his forebears) came from Azerbaijan.
IOW: As far as I'm concerned, Congress is composed of 532 foreigners ... (and I'm not so sure about the other three, either ...)
Some "foreigners" are more distant geographically, culturally and share fewer interests than others.
Your point is a good one however, we do need separation from some of those representatives and their constituents but that doesn't change the problem that this is intended to deal with.
People with any citizenship other than America can't be trusted.
They're shifty.
