Barack Obama is afforded the same ‘type’ of citizenship as Wong Kim Ark and as Arnold.

They are all recognized as citizens of the United States.

There are two types of citizens recognized in the Constituion:

Natural born citizens of the US (can be President)
Citizens of the US (cannot be President)

This is quote from FactCheck.org:

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children”

Read the last line. THAT SAME ACT GOVERNED THE STATUS OF OBAMA SR.’S CHILDREN’. Barack Obama Sr.’s children were GOVERNED by the British Nationality Act of 1948.

Barack was born a citizen of the United States and a citizen of the United Kingdom.

He is NOT a natural born citizen.

Sure, but Arnie is a naturalized citizen, and he can't be President. The other two are natural-born citizens and can.

Barack was born a citizen of the United States and a citizen of the United Kingdom.

Sure. So what? Dual citizenship is not a bar to the Presidency under the Constitution or under US law.

You know, I’m starting to catch up really fast, since I can skip over most of your posts as you are just spamming the thread and refuse to accept anybody else’s evidence or to provide your own.
