Depends what time frame you are talking about. The supreme courts have dumbed down the definition over the last 200+ years. By most recent interpretation, if obama was born in hawaii, he is natural born. By the interpretation in use at the time of obama’s birth, he would not have qualified as a natural born citizen even if he was born in hawaii.
Would it be fair to say that when the Constitution was written, a natural born citizen would be one who was never wholly or partially a citizen of any other country? Seems pretty clear that Barack would fail that test.
obama admitted in 2004 during his debate with Keyes that he was not a natural Born Citizen, but somehow he now is a Natural Born citizen. so it’s VERY recent history that the meaning of “natural born” has become confused. Perhaps it more based on the fact that obama is black that he is allowed to call himself a natural born citizen.
At the time obama was elected to the Senate he was proclaimed as the first African born American to be elected to the Senate. Stange how it appears that he was born in two different countries at the same time!!!!
