This reminds me about Mitt Romney's father, George Romney, who ran for President in 1968. Where were the people clamoring for George Romney's birth certificate in 1968?
George Romney was born in a Mormon colony in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico to parents who were US citizens. He was not born in the USA or in a US controlled enclave, military or diplomatic facility or territory or commonwealth. George Romney was basically a Mexican anchor baby born to US citizen parents who were permanent, long term residents of Mexico (not just visiting as tourists). Later upon moving back to the USA his parents established George as if he were a natural born American, but nobody ever gave him a serious constitutional challenge on that when he was running for president in 1968. Why not?

Being born to two U.S. Citizens outside the county qualifies as being a natural-born citizen, at least according to this. But that's recent. Who knows what they may have thought back in 1968.
Lets say this country had a President that wasn't born in this country and was therefore illegitimate, would you want to know about it? Even if this man was a President you loved and totally backed on policy issues, would you care if evidence came forth that he was illegitimate according to the constitution? Would it bother you if a man born outside of this country, with foreign loyalties, was President?
What is the intent for this OP? Are you indirectly saying you do not think President Obama was not born in the U.S?
Personally I do not agree with his policies but I am not going to try to disguise my political differences with his by focusing on where he was born.
It would not bother me if a president was born somewhere else but he did not know about it when he was elected because that means he decieved the People. That does not mean he had loyalties to another country if he was born somewhere else and later he found out where he was born. There are people that were borne somewhere else and became citizens pledging full loyalty to our country. Take care.
