How about this (in US Law very clearly states: ‘. . . If only one parent is a U.S. Citizen at the time of one’s birth, that parent must have resided in the United States for minimum ten years, five of which must be after the age of 14.’ )

Barack Obama’s father was not a U.S. citizen is a fact. At the time of Barack’s birth, his father was a British subject in the British colony of Kenya and that British citizenship was Obama’s until at least the age of 21. At the age of 21, Obama likely held both Indonesian (as he had been legally adopted by his Indonesian step-father Lolo Soetoro) and British citizenship. Twice in Indonesian primary school records (1967-71) Barack is listed as an Indonesian citizen.

Obama’s mother was only 18 when Obama was born. This means even though she had been a U.S. Citizen for 10 years, his mother fails the test for at-least-5-years-prior-to Barack Obama’s birth, but-after-age-14. In essence, his Mother as the sole U.S. parent is not old enough to qualify her son for automatic U.S. Citizenship.

At most, 2 years elapsed from his mother turning 16 to the time of Barack Obama’s birth when she was 18. His mother would have needed to have been 14 + 5 = 19 years old at the time of Barack Obama’s birth for him to be a natural-born citizen. Obama had to be naturalized to become a U.S. citizen and that disqualifies him from holding the office of POTUS or Vice POTUS. The Constitution clearly declares: Naturalized citizens are ineligible to hold the office of President or Vice President. Barack Hussein Obama II is now an American citizen by his marriage to Michelle Robinson.

Precedent-setting subsequent Rulings):

That provision has application only for those babies born outside of the United States.
