“The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be a natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common -law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves , upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts.”
“all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves , upon their birth, citizens also.”

Every person born outside Jamaica shall become a citizen of Jamaica-
on the sixth day of August, 1962, in the case of a person born before that date; or
on the date of his birth, in the case of a person born on or after the sixth day of August, 1962,
if, at that date, his father or mother is a citizen of Jamaica by birth, descent or registration by virtue of marriage to a citizen of Jamaica.

Obama Sr.’s college friends were shocked at finding out that guy running for POTUS was any relation to Sr. In “Remembrances”, they wrote they never knew anything about Stanley Ann much less a baby. The only guy in college around that time who claimed to know was good ‘ol one term Hawaiian Governor “I was there” Abercrombie but even he failed, after promising, to find the birth certificate but claimed there was something on a paper somewhere that he wouldn’t show.
