...And, when you stop and think about it, why should we? Frankly, I'm not aware of any nation which recognizes and considers the citizenship laws of other nations to take precedence over its own. It's simply not in any country's interests to let another country write its citizenship laws.

That is of course applicable if the IDENTITY of the indvidual claiming citizenship is known. In this particular instance, what you have is a CLAIMED identity, so I imagine the citizenship question is moot.

Note, please, that I have not commented on Obama, specifically, only on the prevailing American citizenship law as of the time in question.

Among the people concerned with Obama's eligibility, there is a broad misunderstanding of those laws. I am trying to correct those misperceptions.

I have not taken a position on Obama's status because, frankly, I don't know -- for sure -- what the circumstances of his birth were. I am fairly certain, though, that they are not as claimed. But I have no idea in which regard the public information is in error.
