Oh, and further, his mother would have had to do some paperwork to get Barack his American citizenship if he was born outside of America.

You are correct. I have a child born outside the US, and I had to have her registered at the American Embassy.

At the time that Obama was born, there was no such provision, and if one of the parents was NOT a US citizen and the child was born outside of US jurisdiction, then the child would have to go through the naturalizaton process.

Quite honestly, I see no reason to believe that Obama was not born in the US, so I think this is a false issue.
