Though there is no reason whatsoever to believe that BHO isn’t a US citizen at all.There actually is some dispute about whether Obama was legally adopted by Lolo Soetoro, in Hawaii or when he lived in Indonesia from 1967-71. Some say that would negate his American citizenship, although clearly the United States has treated him as a US citizen ever since.
They’d be wrong.
US citizenship is hard to lose. A parent cannot renounce it for the child in any way for any reason.
If has to be renounced by the individual themselves after they have attained legal age.
The US treats him as a citizen because he is a citizen.
