I've been working (on and off) on a spreadsheet matrix that depicts all of the likely aspects of US citizenship -- with specific individuals as illustrations of each case I could think of. (I intend to publish it here on FR -- as a HTML Table -- for comment and editorial input when I'm done.)
When you lay it out as an X-Y matrix, is it obvious that there is an amazingly large set of possible combinations...
syc1959, your jurisdiction element certainly needs to be added as another defining condition (column). (ACK! More possible combinations...!)
;-}
BTW, is anyone aware of an American [born] citizen who is the offspring of a foreign [male] diplomat and a U.S. "natural born" wife? (That is the closest analogy of Øbama's situation [assuming he can prove Hawaiian {soil} birth] I have been able to come up with -- so far...)

Of course, there is always the possibility that Øbama might expose himself to
"embarrassment", and spring a surprise (like FMD or MX) on us as his father (making him "Natural Born" -- even by our definition).
Then, I guess it would be up to us to blazon the fraudulent nature of his books -- and the sealing of his other life documents -- to the U.S. voting public...

BTW, is anyone aware of an American [born] citizen who is the offspring of a foreign [male] diplomat and a U.S. "natural born" wife? Simple answer: NO. No example immediately comes to mind. (That doesn't necessarily mean there are NO examples, just that I can't think of one.)
But Barack Hussein Obama SENIOR does not even come close to this description. He was a "foreign-exchange student," not a diplomat.
I hope you will share your "XY Matrix" with us when you get it "done," dear brother in Christ! Thank you ever so very much for writing!

So far the closest I've found is H.H. Prince Don Agustín de Iturbide y Green. Wikipedia says he was born in Mexico City and died in Washington D.C. But this other article says he was born in Washington, D.C. I wonder if the difference reflects the very issue of legal domicile which in international law goes to the father?
