Even so, he had to give up his citizenry to attend an Indonesian school. The fact that he gave it up, even as a child, disqualifies him from running for President.

He had to be 16 or older to de nationalize, and it had to be done at us consulate overseas. He was 16 in 1977, and in 1977 he was in high school in Hawaii.

Really? At age 6, he went before a judge, raised his little hand, and renounced his United States citizenship for the purpose of getting into first grade? You have evidence of this?

After investigating the matter, here's what that liberal rag TheBlaze (founded by well-known Obama-loving liberal Glenn Beck) concluded:

However, it’s important to note that even if Obama was adopted and became an Indonesian citizen, he would not have lost his American citizenship under existing constitutional law (see the Supreme Court case Perkins v. Elg). Indonesia then and now does not allow dual citizenship, but under American law he would not have lost his American citizenship until he reached the age of majority and chose himself to give it up...

Even if he was adopted and was an Indonesian citizen at one time, though, it would not have affected his status as a U.S. citizen per the Supreme Court.
