Incorrect. The Court of Appeals in Indiana looked at the merits of the case in 2009 Their ruling in part
Quote:
Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person “born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject” at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those “born in the allegiance of the United States [] natural-born citizens.”15
You can real the entire ruling

To top this there are now over twenty State ballot commissions who are facing lawsuits and the end of the week we expect to file against twenty more. A week after this we should get the other seventeen ? No wait is there fifty States or fifty-seven. Maybe we should ask Obama.
Dude, in all seriousness, its been 4 years since he made that slip, and that's the one and only gaffe that you people keep referencing in your unfunny jokes. Is that because there arn't any others, hmm? If Obama was the terrible speaker you want to insinuate he is, than surely you would have more material, hmm? I mean he could have forgotten the third thing he want's to Abolish, offered a 10 grand bet on something on live tv, said the fundamentals of the economy are strong and had crib notes for prepared questions on his right hand...

So keep making stupid remarks about things most of you know nothing about. To prove a point there are three types of citizens in the United States. Native born, Naturalized and Natural Born Citizens.
Here is a link to US citizenship law. please point us to the place where those 3 types of citizenship are discussed.
