I’m so sick of you folks who cannot seem to understand that there is a difference between a “citizen” and a “natural born citizen” (which is what the Constitution requires for someone to be President).
I’m a perfect example. I’m a citizen due to my being born in California. But I’m not a natural born citizen because my father wasn’t a citizen at the time I was born (and the country of which he was a citizen recognized the citizenship of children, so I was born with dual citizenship).
So stop trying to use these inane arguments about whether Obama is a citizen to confuse and muddy up the issue. It’s not about his citizenship, it’s about whether or not he’s a natural born citizen. (Although even his “plain old” citizenship is on shaky ground as a result of the questions about his traveling on foreign passports that have come up, and never been addressed.)
Like the guy in the black robe?

That's odd. My son was also born in California. His mother (my wife) is not a U.S. citizen yet my son is a natural born citizen as recognized by the U.S. Constitution and all current legal precedent.
Me? I'm sick of birthers who are pimping their fictional definition of Natural Born Citizen, a definition of eligibility created specifically to be one that Obama couldn't meet, as though it is the Law of the Land and then acting incredulous that nobody is buying it.
Again, I'll repeat, Nobody. Is. Buying. It.
Settle down man, I’m on YOUR SIDE! Trust me. I want to see that man OUT of the WH asap!
I’m trying to get an understanding of what the Heck is the definition of a “natural born citizen.”
YOu can ask that question here and get a multitude of answers! GO ahead, ask and see what comes up.
Maybe if you could point out where that difference is defined buy either the Constitution or federal law then that might help?
