If Russia wanted, they could declare all US citizens to be Russian citizens...and we would ALL be dual citizens, and then no one could be President. Of course, what the Founders were concerned with was foreign loyalties, and Obama has ZERO loyalty to the UK.

But Obama's birth condition isn't an artifact of some asinine oddball ruling like that. His father had loyalty to the UK, and by operation of well established and recognized law, at least some form of that loyalty passes to his children.

The same holds true for naturalized citizens. But that isn't the criterion set forth in the constitution.

The criteria that you assert holds, as a matter of law, makes birth-vacation babies eligible, even when both parents are non-citizens and the child is reared to adulthood in a foreign land.

This is one of the silliest arguments proposed. We don’t have to come up with irrelevant hypotheticals as Obama’s own website admits he and his father were governed by British law. There’s no ‘ifs’ to it.
