OK, Snoopes.com says that the law exists but doesn’t apply to O since he was born in Hawaii. http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/citizen.asp

My lawyer wife says that the title doesn’t look right. If “7 FAM 1133.2-2 Original Provisions and Amendments to Section 301” is a law, it should have US Code reference. If it is a Federal regulation it should have a CFR at the start. She says that this looks made up.

Go to the link and check it as I gave it to you. Also Snopes owners are Obama supporters. FR doesn't use Snopes. They are big Dem supporters.

It's not made up, you can find it on the Department of State website. It's just part of the "U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual Volume 7 - Consular Affairs" It is just their opinion of course, but you can imagine they run stuff like that past their internal lawyers. As they point out, no court has adjudicated the matter. Hopefully that will change, and soon.
