You are absolutely right. Even if Obama was born in Kenya, he is still natural born US citizen unless neither of his mother/father were US citizens.
Added later,
Well – I must say this is probably a topic where some interesting debates can be held about what constitution does and does not say. See here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_Born_Citizen_ClauseThe above link also has historical examples of presidential candidates for which the same issue was raised. (i.e. Chester Arthur,Christopher Schürmann, Charles Evans Hughes,George Romney,Barry Goldwater,Lowell Weicker,Róger Calero,John McCain, Obama)

April 21, 2011 at 10:46 AM #688184blahblahblahParticipantThe birth certificate argument will never go away. It is useful for distracting people while their transition to total serfdom is completed. It’s just this year’s flavor of John Kerry wasn’t on a Swift Boat/George Bush had a DUI/Bill Clinton was a draft dodger/Al Gore said he invented the internet/Sarah Palin can’t really see Russia from Alaska/Ross Perot has big ears and talks funny/Michael Dukakis looks funny riding in that tank/etc… When we get the next big crop of candidates in 2012, expect a whole new batch of silly stories that Jon Stewart can make little jokes about. The folks at your office will chatter endlessly about these meaningless diversions. There will be SNL skits and little songs that we can all watch and giggle about instead of paying attention to what’s happening in our neighborhoods and around the world.
The more you get people talking about stuff that doesn’t matter, the less time they have to talk about things that do matter. It’s elementary! Control 101.
