Unless the law changed since, and as there is no proof he ever renounced his Kenyan/Indonesian citiezenship when he came of age, then he is not a US citizen...

If he was a citizen before, then his case would be different than yours. He never would have not been a US citizen, even though he would have been a dual citizen. He never would have needed to take a citizenship oath. If he was a citizen to begin with. A child cannot renounce his/her citizenship under US law, and he was only about 10 when he returned to the US. He could have maintained any Indonesian citizenship, simply because the US did not and does not officialy recognize it. But he would have needed to travel to and from the US on a US passport, especially after turn 21, because traveling to the US on a foreign passport is one way to renounce citizenship.

For this purpose it would not matter if he was naturalized or native born (of which "natural born" is, a subset)

No, naturalized or native is not enough for POTUS...

He must be “natural born”

He cant be because Obama Sr was born in Zanzibar/Kenya..

Maybe that’s why 0bama had people go into his passport files, to scrub evidence of a foreign passport.
