Per Article II of the constitution you are a “natural born citizen” if both of your parents (father and mother) are natural born citizens or US citizens or naturalized citizens and you yourself are born in the US or US territories.

Posts like this is where a lot of these problems are coming from. Everything I struck through above is not in the Constitution. The Constitution doesn't define what a 'natural born citizen' is, in Article 1 it authorizes congress to define citizenship and naturalization laws. See post 204, those are the current laws that define if one is a natural born citizen.

correction on post, it is #174, not 204 where I quoted the current law.
