If geography was a factor then theoretically the King of England could become President if he were born in a US hospital or any other American site.

Sir Winston's mother was American. Too bad he never ran for President. He'd have made a far better one than the Doofus on the Dime, not to mention the incumbent.

Under the laws in effect at that time, children born abroad of parents only one of whom was a U.S. citizen were natural born citizens only if the citizen were the father.
