Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

That's not entirely true. In Kenya, the law does say a citizen can only be Kenyan and nothing else. Oboma had to deny his American citizenship after the age of 18. That's the law there.

BUT......

If he had a friend or relative in the government, he's given a pass and still remains a citizen. Odinga, the president of Kenya (who Oboma campaigned for) is Obomas cousin.

A president elect with duo citizenship is unconstitutional because he/she has duo allegiances.

AND......

Oboma would have to take an oath of citizenship in the United States to become a citizen the same way Immigrants from Mexico have to if he were not a natural born a citizen.

And of course you can quote the article of the Constitution that supports this?

Not to mention that is a violation of the Logan Act, a violation of the law, but broken and bent many times by Democrats all the way back to Kerry.

The Constitution says the president must be a "native-born citizen."

It does not say the president cannot also be a citizen of another country.

For example, let's say the child of a Japanese husband and British wife was born in Cleveland.

I believe that under the laws in these countries he would be from birth a citizen of both UK and Japan. Despite this, under our laws he would be a "native-born citizen" and eligible to be president when he reaches the age of 35.
