You need to check YOUR facts. If Obama was born in Hawaii, he is considered “natural-born;” it doesn't matter who is parents are or what age his mother was when he was born in that circumstance. Obama’s mother's age, how long she has lived in the U.S., etc. matter only if he was born outside the U.S. (e.g., Kenya, as some have alleged). There have been numerous, recent threads on FR about the concept of “natural-born”, with appropriate links to the relevant sections of the U.S. code.

every bit of information i have seen from the letters that the founding fathers wrote to the latest senate confirmation suggests that you are wrong. It has everything to do with where his parents were born.
In fact it tends to show that it really doesn’t matter where a person was born as long as their parents were both citizens of the US.
If you disagree please point out some links I can check to support your assertion.
