President Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961. He acquired U.S. citizenship at birth, and is therefore a "natural born citizen" of the United States of America, eligible to serve as president under the U.S. Constitution.

He did not lose his citizenship as a result of being adopted in Indonesia by his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro. Legally, he could not have lost his American citizenship as a minor; further, there is no evidence that he was ever adopted.

He is the only president in U.S. history who showed the public a copy of his official birth certificate before being elected.

His dual citizenship at birth (American and British) is no impediment to his eligibility, and in any event, his British citizenship expired on his 21st birthday.
