• ongoing Obama birth certificate flap
  

  Obama’s citizenship is NOT in question. His mother was a natural born citizen and, therefore, he has that status as well. Case closed.
 It doesn’t matter where he was born. It doesn’t matter whether he presented a birth certificate or a certificate of live birth. He simply IS a citizen based on the fact that his mother was a natural born citizen.
  
  Under the current definition of “natural born citizen” in US law, Mr. Obama is a natural born citizen because his mother was. She was born in KS and gave him citizenship upon his birth. He could have been born on Mars and STILL WOULD BE A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
  
  Once again, it does not matter where he was born. Try reading the US Constitution’s definition of “natural born citizen”. His mother was born in KS and that fact alone gives him the status of “natural born citizen”.
  
  The “conspiracy enthusiasts” cannot fathom the simple fact that Obama is a natural born citizen no matter what his dad was. His mother gave him that status upon his birth because she was one. It does not matter how long she lived here before giving birth. The fact that she was born here made her a US citizen. She could have been born here, stayed for 1 day and then been taken abroad and never returned. She would STILL be a US natural born citizen. That makes Obama one too.
