Not quite so cut and dried.

IF Stanley Ann was married to a foreign national, and IF Barak was born in Kenya, then he is not automatically a US citizen.

IF he was born outside the US, its possessions and territories, he may not be constitutionally qualified for the office, even if he is a citizen.

Lawyers are debating that very issue as we speak.

Since his dad was “married” to an African woman concurrently, does US law even recognize his “marriage” to Stanley as valid?

Wouldn’t it be bigamy or polygamy?

Wrong. Barak could have been born on the Moon and his father a foreign national, but if Mother was US citizen who had lived in U.S. at least 5 years in lifetime, then he is natural born citizen. United States Code, Title 8, sec 1401.

Lawyers debate every law, include the Law of Gravity. Why? Because people pay us to!
