British law would not have conferred British citizenship to Obama as a bastard being born in this country.
The only argument you would have is that Obama’s father was a British Citizen.
For those that keep citing Vattel- you really need to LISTEN to the oral argument in Nguyen. This is not settled law.
That is my contention - Obama’s father was a British Citizen. He was not a test tube baby, right? There was a biological father, correct. And what is the nationality of the father? Therefore, baby Barry was not born to parents which were US citizens.
One can argue that both parents have to be US Citizens AND be born in the US.
HOWEVER, this is not settled law and one could very well lose that argument - AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE ORAL ARGUMENT OF NGUYEN.
