You can be a citizen even if your parents are not. My grandmother’s parents were born in Europe, but she was born here and therefore was a citizen.

She was a "Natural" born, your grannies were "Naturalized." BIG difference in th Constitution!!!

You miss my point. If Obama was born in Hawaii (which I understand is a point of debate), the citizenship of his parents is moot.

A poster earlier was saying that the reason Obama is ineligible is because his mother was not old enough to have lived in the states the requisite 5 years after turning 16. That is a separate argument from the questionable birth certificate.
