Re: "If she was not over the age of 19" Doesn't matter at all if born inside the U.S. As I said: *An American mother does not* have to be 'over 18' to give birth to a fully American child on American soil!** Re: "...when he was born outside of the US then he is not a natural born citizen." Well, that might be different. (But that claim of 'foreign birth' was NOT in the article that you posted, to which I replied, NOR was it alleged in the cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. They STIPULATED that he was born in America.) Feel free to try to prove different though, (I you can). Like I said though: born in America to an American parent = born American. Re: "Since there are three witnesses that are relatives of Obama who have testified that he was born in Kenya....' No there are not. No 'testimony'. Testimony is given in a Court of law, and under oath. (So WHERE and WHEN and in WHAT COURT do you claim that such 'testimony' was ever given?) I notice also that you are no longer mentioning the bizarre claim that Obama's American mother somehow 'lost' her American citizenship when she married, or traveled and lived overseas or some such similar weirdness. That is - of course - utterly ridiculous. As I observed: When you are BORN an American citizen (as Obama's mother clearly was) you are ALWAYS an American citizen --- unless you go (as an adult!) before a federal judge or consular official and formally renounce your American citizenship. It would be IMPOSSIBLE for her, under American law, to give up her birthright American citizenship BEFORE she reached the age of majority.
