Nothing in the Constitution says they can't/couldn't. But it would have been interesting to see what the Supreme Court would have done. The fact that nothing in the Constitution says that African-Americans couldn't be citizens didn't stop the Supreme Court from ruling in Dred Scott that black people couldn't be citizens.
