I think Mittens was born in Mexico in a Mormon compound practicing polygamy. I want to see his long and short form birth certificate. Sounds a stupid as the birthers demands doesn't it.
His father was born in Mexico. It was a big issue when he ran for President in the Republican primaries in 1967.
Even if Obama was born in Kenya his mother was a citizen of the US and met the requirements for Barry to have his mother register his birth at the Embassy or US Consulate for Natural born American citizenship. He would have been issued a passport at that time to enter the US.
I have a good friend who worked in Gothenburg, Sweden and married a Swedish woman. They had a son. Later, they divorced. In Sweden the woman is always awarded custody of a Swedish born child if the father is not Swedish. So, using his son's American passport that he received when Eric (my friend) registered him with the US Embassy, he smuggled him out of the country on a midnight express train to Paris. He then flew his son to JFK in New York. It was an amazing feat. The famous columnist Jack Anderson wrote an article about it years later.

The point is Hansi, Eric's son, was considered a natural born US citizen even though his mother was Swedish.
I miss Eric. Hansi is in his forties now. This all took place in 1978.
