I find it highly insulting that if my wife and I were stationed overseas that our children born there would not have the same status as I.

That's an urban myth. A child born to American citizens overseas is an American citizen from birth and qualifies for the Presidency.

There are only two classes of American citizen- natural-born and naturalized. If you are not a naturalized citizen, then you are natural-born. There is no third category of "citizen from birth, but not natural-born."

I know that. I was responding to those that have no clue as to what they are stating. If Obama was born on U.S. soil then he is a nartural born citizen, as is McCain, as is any one born within the United States or born to U.S. citizen's overseas.

I was pretty miffed at the clown that told some mother that her daughter could not be president because she was born accross the border in Canada, even though they actually lived in the U.S and ARE U.S. citizens.
