[QUOTE="Headbanging_Man:1198884"][QUOTE="dertoxia:1198862"]"The children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens." It's in the Immigration and Naturalization act.[/QUOTE] If I remember correctly though, this really only applies with both parents being citizens and residents, i.e. only temporarily overseas. According to the ever-reliable Wikip., the "natural born" part hasn't been interpreted by the courts, but I can't imagine it would hold with a baby born into foreign residency. Also: [QUOTE]Here again is the citation at issue from the Naturalization Act of 1790: "... And the children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens:" Here is the portion of the Naturalization Act of 1795 that repealed the Naturalization Act of 1790: … and the children of citizens of the United States born out of the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, shall be considered as citizens of the United States. [/QUOTE] From this site: http://www.etherzone.com/2008/nath022208.shtml And some right-wingers have also been offering the debatable opinion that even being born in Hawaii, Obama would have needed 2 citizen parents to count as "natural born". So there's really no definitive law or ruling, but unless the kid is squeezed out at a foreign military/diplomatic site or while the parents are on an overseas vacation, being born to USAn parents out of the country allows for citizenship, but most likely not the elusive [I]natural-born[/I] citizenship.[/QUOTE]
