Sorry, but I don’t believe you are right. John McCain got his natural born citiznenship because both of his parents were natural born citizens and he was born in a US controlled area. His parents were on military duty which does not transfer your residency either.
Obama only had one parent who was a natural born citizen.
For example, I don’t believe that people born in Puerto Rico are US Citizens. I believe they travel under a Puerto Rico passport and have to naturlize to become US citizens.

Puerto Ricans are US citizens as far as I know.

Here are the facts:
In 1917, the Jones-Shafroth Act granted Puerto Ricans U.S. citizenship. All persons born in Puerto Rico after 1941 are considered natural-born citizens of the United States, one of the constitutional requirements to be President the United States.

U.S. Code : Title 8 : Section 1402: Persons born in Puerto Rico on or after April 11, 1899
All persons born in Puerto Rico on or after April 11, 1899, and prior to January 13, 1941, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, residing on January 13, 1941, in Puerto Rico or other territory over which the United States exercises rights of sovereignty and not citizens of the United States under any other Act, are declared to be citizens of the United States as of January 13, 1941. All persons born in Puerto Rico on or after January 13, 1941, and subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, are citizens of the United States at birth.

Obama only had one parent who was a natural born citizen. Keep in mind that it would make his mother 14/15 years old and unable to transmit citizenship (provided he were born outside the US). That said, I'll continue to conclude he is hiding something else in his LF/BC
