If you're referring to the myth that Obama was a citizen of another country, you are incorrect.

From Obama's "Fight the Smears" website

"When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire.  As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948.  That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children."

"Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982."

I was speaking of the myth that he lied on his application to the Illinois Bar.

Is that germane? Would it affect his ability to hold the Presidency?
