Someone better tell my daughter, she has a Japanese and American passport.
I meant for POTUS.
In Indonesia there was no dual citizenship before 2007 or 2008. Now dual citizenship can be had for children of mixed nationality parents. Obama is supposed to have traveled to Pakistan on an Indonesian passport. He had to be an indonesian citizen through his mothers marriage, and Obama’s adoption by Lolo Soerto. He could not get an Indonesian passport without renouncing any dual citizenship.
And my wife was one until at age 21. She declared for the US because Filipine law at that time required adults to make a decision.

“Someone better tell my daughter, she has a Japanese and American passport.”
Someone better tell my wife too, she has a Philippine and American passport.
America has been allowing dual citizenship for a number of years, but at the same time has never “officially “ reconized it. U.S. laws are based on the belief that a citizen can only have allegiance to one country. obama’s dual citizenship at birth does make him ineligible to be President. He can never legally be the President of the United States.
