The founding fathers believed that citizenship was a birthright. That Natural Born Citizenship was acquired by birth to to American citizens whether at home or across the seas. The 14 amendment states that you are a citizen if you are born here on American soil,AND SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF. Subject to the jurisdiction thereof refers to the allegiance of your parents. If your parents are American citizens( you are Natural Born) or are becoming American citizens(naturalization) then you are a citizen(naturalized) at birth. If obama was born in Hawaii,then he is a native born naturalized citizen(Wong KIm Ark,Supreme Court)not a Natural Born citizen. obama is not egible to be the President and thus not legally the President. p.s. the 14th amendment was never legally ratified as the Southern states(and one northern state) were not allowed to vote because they opposed it.

So who, born on US soil, is not subject to the jurisdiction of the US? Who, in fact, residing or visiting ANYWHERE within the boundaries of the United States, is not subject to the jurisdiction of the US?
Does Obama fall into that category? Was his father immune from the laws of the United States?
