Wrong. Obama is ineligible because his father was not citizen and his mother wasn’t eligible by laws at the time to confer citizen by herself alone.

*IF* he was born outside of the United States. She was too young to confer citizenship *IF* he was born outside of the United States.

For some reason, people keep leaving off that qualifier.

Sorry, I thought that was assumed (not that he *was*, but *IF*)
