I remember studying this isssue in law school-- and I graduated in 1978.
More than 100 years before Obama's election, the Supreme Court ruled that the 14th Amendment's requirement, "Nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws," applied to all persons "without regard to any differences of race, of color, or of nationality," including "an alien, who has entered the country, and has become subject in all respects to its jurisdiction, and a part of its population, although alleged to be illegally here." Kaoru Yamataya v. Fisher, 189 U.S. 86 (1903) (emphasis added).
