Seems alot of the early citations have said that “natural born” is quite a step above Jus Sanguinis (citizenship because your birth mother is a citizen) or Jus Soli (citizenship because you were born on American soil).

“natural born” means parents are married, both parents are citizens, and there is NO dual citizenship or elements of conflict.

AFAIK, Obama does not pass these criteria.

The bar is set VERY high for POTUS, and rightly so.
