YOu should follow the link from post 61, because it says exactly what I said it says. The information in post 61 is from the section of the law regarding children born OUTSIDE the United States.

Here is the section from the link regarding children born on U.S. Soil:

Birth in the United States

A child born on American soil automatically gets U.S. citizenship, unless the child is born to a foreign government official who is in the United States as a recognized diplomat. Children born in certain U.S. territories -- Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Guam -- may also acquire U.S. citizenship. For details, see Title 8 of the U.S. Code, available at http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/8. Anyone born with U.S. citizenship retains it for life unless he or she deliberately gives it up -- for example, by filing an oath of renunciation.

I hope that is clear enough for you, and will end this line of debate.

The mother's age only comes into play if Obama was born outside the United States. If he was born in Hawaii, he is a natural-born citizen.
