There is nothing in there regarding requiring the mother to be 18 years old. Not to mention she was 18 at the time. All that s required is for her to have spent a total of five years living in the US, two of which were after the age of 14. She qualifies for this and thus passes on citizenship to Obama. Of course once again this is all moot as he was born in Hawaii.edit on 3/1/2012 by Xcalibur254 because: (no reason given)
Please show me your proof that he was , im on the fence i have not scene positive proof either way . As usual the Liberals line up on one side and the conservatives on the other .How bout instead of being sheep to your political beliefs you be a good American instead and find the truth

Different rules apply for persons born abroad to one U.S. citizen before November 14, 1986. United States law on this subject changed multiple times throughout the twentieth century, and the law is applicable as it existed at the time of the individual's birth.
For persons born between December 24, 1952 and November 14, 1986, a person is a U.S. citizen if all of the following are true (except if born out-of-wedlock)[8]:
1.The person's parents were married at the time of birth
2.One of the person's parents was a U.S. citizen when the person was born
3.The citizen parent lived at least ten years in the United States before the child's birth;
4.A minimum of 5 of these 10 years in the United States were after the citizen parent's 14th birthday.

Oh fer flips sake, enough already! Obama's a US citizen. He's also President. Four years of this rubbish is making people like Arpaio (a fame-loving idiot) and Taitz (just an idiot) look like, well, idiots.

no, you are wrong....2 american parents=american citizenship.....
So................if his mother is an american, his father a kenyan, and obama born in hawaii....does this make him inelligible? I thought as long as the candidate himself is a natural born citizen then that is all that matters.
Maybe they are trying to cover-up the fact one of his parents is a foreigner or naturalised citizen? Even so it seems immaterial.

I don't think this will ever be truly settled. I'm actually more concerned with how he managed to pay for college. That's the "smoking gun" I'd be going after. I'd be willing to bet my house that he committed fraud on his applications. We'll never know either way though. He's the chosen one by TPTB, and his little sheep (evident by a lot of the comments on her) will defend him and the crimes I believe he's guilty of.

So, just because he was poor and black means he couldn't find a way to go to college? Seriously?

Scholarship, and student loans. I remember during the '08 election Obama mentioned that it took him and Michelle years to pay off their school loans.

As long as the child is born here, it doesn't matter where the parents were born or whether they're US citizens.

Arapaio, known for his strict enforcement of immigration laws, commissioned the investigative team after local citizens presented him with a petition
Welcome to the home of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office Posse. With over fifty different Posses, there are many ways in which the residents of Maricopa County are helping support their local Officers. From assisting with animal cruelty to searching for lost hikers, these volunteers do it all
Mike Zullo, Arpaio’s lead investigator, said his team believes the Hawaii Department of Health has engaged in a systematic effort to hide from public inspection any original 1961 birth records it may have in its possession.
“Officers of the Hawaii Department of Health and various elected Hawaiian public officials may have intentionally obscured 1961 birth records and procedures
Arpaio believes a congressional investigation might be warranted and has asked that any information relevant to the investigation held by other law enforcement agencies be forwarded to his office.
The investigators contend the videos illustrate their conclusion that the features and anomalies observed on the Obama long-form birth certificate were inconsistent with features produced when a paper document is scanned, even if the scan is enhanced by Optical Character Recognition, OCR, and optimized.
Arpaio emphasized that the Hawaii Department of Health needs to provide, as part of the full disclosure, evidence regarding the chain of custody of all Obama birth records, including paper, microfilm and electronic records to eliminate the possibility that a forger or forgers may have tampered with the birth records.

I honestly don't think Obama was born in Kenya. I am absolutely certain he was born in Hawaii. I mean what would the elite gain by electing a Kenyan born president?

But it does matter where the parents were born as it relates to the definition of a "Natural-Born Citizen." Plain ole citizen, sure, but "Natural-Born" has more requirements (some of which are muddled thorugh common law and past precedent).

Meanwhile, WorldNetDaily has been engaging in a more direct form of bribery by raising money to help fund the posse investigation.
A December 26th column by Joseph Farah begs readers to donate to the fund, declaring it "probably America's last chance to salvage the integrity of the Constitution for all time."
Farah's column has been sent out at least eight times since the beginning of the year to WorldNetDaily's email subscribers as a solicitation to donate.
That email links to a page at WorldNetDaily's online store where you can donate to "fund independent investigations of Obama's eligibility," adding, "A portion of all contributions will go to support WorldNetDaily's efforts, with another portion going to Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Cold Case Posse, set to issue its report in February 2012." WorldNetDaily has sent out at least three email solicitations promoting this fund since the beginning of the year. WorldNetDaily provides no details on exactly what that funding split will be.
Corsi was apparently the first to line-up and testify before the posse. A November 1st article stated that Corsi "spent 18 hours over a two-day period in Arizona briefing the Cold Case Posse on a wide-range of evidence regarding Obama's eligibility."
