Whether or not obamas mother was legally married or not is of no importance . Natural Born citizenship requires that both Parents be U.S. citizens , not whether they are legally married. For whats its worth in 1790 , citizenship was carried by the man, women did not acquire the right to pass on citizenship until the 1920s. obama could be a native born citizens , but there is no way he could be a Natural born citizen.
That is why the US Supreme Court has rejected all eight Obama eligibility appeals that have reached them.
Here’s the law:

Since the Wong KIm Ark case (1890’s) native born(naturalized ) has been recognized. Where as Ark was born to parents that had allegiance to the U.S. by immigration(legal) they were not yet citizens and did not have FULL AND COMPLETE ALLEGIANCE as was required for a Natural Born citizen. All the cases in the Supreme Court has been rejected on Standing. A citizen does not have the right(standing ) to file a case against obama for lack of egibility. No case has been heard based on the merits of the case. If one was obama would not be sitting in the White House.
Really? I must have missed that when did they state that? Please cite your reference to the USSC and their rejection.
