"I was am a natural born citizen and I was born not long after Obama and outside of the United States.
I have a Birth Certificate issued by the US Embassy to prove it."

If both of your parents were citizens at the time, and subsequent residency requirements were met, then you are correct, but failure on any of those counts would mean that you are not. It only matters if you run for president.

If he was a citizen at birth he was a natural born citizen. That's all it means. There is nothing in the constitutional requirements for president that requires his parents to be citizens.

Truman,
How do you know that you are labelled natural-born, does your documentation from the US Embassy state this fact?

If Mr. Obama was adopted by his mother’s second husband, an Indonesian, then shouldn’t his name still be Soetero(sp?)?

How can he go by Barack H. Obama unless he had a legal name change, or was the Indonesian adoption not recognized by the US?

Can someone clear this up for me?
