Donofrios arguement has nothing to do with Obama, it was the status of his father. Since Obamas father was a British subject, Obama is not considered natural born per the Constitution.

The US Constitution says nothing about one's parents. In fact, it does not define "natural born".

Therefore, if an interpretation is needed, SCOTUS will follow the path of least trouble (i.e. avoid riots and confirm what 53% of voters wanted).
