Barack Hussein Mohammed Obama was born: August 4, 1961 (1961-08-04) (age 47) Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.A. He was what the illegal aliens call “anchor babies.” He was a dual citizen, as his father was a citizen of Nyang’oma Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya. [My daughter was a dual citizen of Britain and America because she was born in Scotland to an American Citizen living abroad, and a British citizen. She normally would have been a dual citizen until age 18, but since she moved to the US and did not return within the legal required period, she lost her dual-citizenship. Even though she was the daughter of a British citizen, she could no longer claim dual citizenship.] He emigrated to Indonesia when he was 5, and did not return until several years later, bringing his actual citizenship into question, because he spent the majority of his youth outside the country.

“No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at (or after) the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”

One cannot be eligible, therefore cannot receive votes, if not a natural born citizen.

That would be incorrect since one of his parents was a U.S. citizen.

That would be incorrect, too. For people born in the U.S., citizenship is a birthright and cannot not be given up for you. You must do that yourself. Even had Obama's mother gotten Indonesian citizenship for him, for him to lose his U.S. citizenship he would have had to perform an expatriating act once he became an adult. And rather than spending the majority of his youth outside the U.S. he only spent 4 years - 1967 to 1971 - living abroad.

One cannot be eligible, therefore cannot receive votes, if not a natural born citizen.

And if Obama was born in Hawaii then he is a natural born U.S. citizen and Constitutionally qualified to be president.
