My words:(He is NOT a natural born citizen, period.)

“How do you know that for sure? I mean, I question it, but how do you know that as a fact?” A “natural born” citizen is one who is born on US soil AND born of 2 US citizens.
Lets say Obama was born in HI. Great, he was then born on US soil which makes him a citizen....but not “natural born” citizen. To be “natural born” both of his parents HAD to be citizens. His mom was, his father was not.

My words: (Nor is John McCain as he was born in Colon, Panama not on US soil or US territory.)

“I agree that is where he was born, but he was born to two US citizens, so that is not an issue.” Yes it is an issue. His parents were BOTH US citizens, which means McCain IS a citizen.....but he is NOT a “natural born” citizen because he was NOT born on US soil. Colon, Panama was not US soil or US base, or US territory.

Bottom line is the TWO requirements of being considered “natural born”. The video below explains it best. The two are: Born on US soil AND of US citizen parents. Example. Two people could come to the US from Kenya. Become US citizens, and then give birth to a child. The child could grow up to be President because he/she was born on US soil to parents who were US citizens at the time of birth. The parents MUST be citizens.....but don’t have to be “natural born” themselves.
