ANSWER:

According to the constitution, a former Secretary of State who was born in Yugoslavia but is now a naturalized citizen could not be president of US.

Option (c)

EXPLANATION:

There are three criteria that must be satisfied to be eligible for becoming the 'President of the United States'. They are:

He/she must be a natural-born citizen of the Unites States
He/she must be at least 35 years old
He/she must be a resident of the United States for at least 14 years.

Since in option (c) the former Secretary was born in Yugoslavia, he/she does not satisfy the first criteria. The other two options satisfy all the three criteria.
