What is Barack Obama 's nationality?
He is of American Nationality. He held both US and Kenyan citizenship as a child, but no longer has a Kenyan citizenship. He is of both Caucasion and African ethnicity.
Does marrying a kenyan woman guarantee kenyan citizenship?
Not according to this. http://kenya.rcbowen.com/constitution/chap6.html#91 According to the precise wording used here, a WOMAN marrying a Kenyan is entitled to apply for citizenship. With the lack of wording that a man marrying a Kenyan is also entitled to apply, I would have to say that either you wouldn't be or else applications are approved on a case by case basis. I would consult the Kenyan embassy for clarification.
If a mother is white and a father is kenyan what nationality is the son?
It depends on what the countries laws on citizenship are. In Obama's case he is recognized as only American by the U.S. government. But if Kenya allows dual citizenship he may also be both Kenyan and American.
You are kenyan and you have a indefinete stamp on your passport what are the requirements if you were to have a full british passport?
After living inside the UK for 5 continuous years, apply for British Citizenship. When it is time, write the citizenship test. If you are approved on all matters, they will tell you where to go and take your citizenship oath and then receive your certificate of naturalization as a British Citizen.After that, you can apply for a British Passport.P.S. I don't know the law for Kenyan citizens but you may lose your Kenyan citizenship if you apply for another nationality. Ask your embassy or consulate about that.
Does Obama have dual citizenship?
No. He was born with dual citizenship British/American, his British citizenship was transferred to Kenyan when Kenya became independent and he lost his Kenyan citizenship at age 23 because he didn't renounce his American citizenship (Kenya doesn't allow dual citizenship). So currently and since age 23 he holds citizenship in only one country--The United States of America.
Can you have a Kenyan passport and British passport?
If you have both citizenship and both their laws allow you to hold both passport then you are legally a dual citizen of the countries.
What citizenship is Barack Obama?
He is a citizen of only the United States. At birth he was a citizen of the United States (thus a natural born citizen.) He was also entitled to British citizenship through his father which then became Kenyan citizenship when Kenya became independent, but as Kenya (unlike the U.S.) doesn't allow dual citizenship and because he didn't renounce his natural born U.S. citizenship, he lost his Kenyan citizenship at the age of 23. So he was technically a dual citizen until age 23 he has been purely an American citizen since.
What year did Barack Obama's mother give up US citizenship?
Barack Obama, the president, never had Kenyan citizenship because he was born in the USA (in Hawaii) and is an American citizen. Barack Obama Sr. (his dad) never gave up his Kenyan citizenship, even though he lived in the USA and studied here for a number of years. (This is a "Birther" question-- it comes from a group of Republicans who still do not believe President Obama was born in the USA, and who keep asking about Kenya. It has been well-documented that President Obama never was born in Kenya and did not even visit Kenya till the late 1980s.)
Is there a problem to get a us citizenship if you married to an illegal Mexican?

If an Englishman marries a Kenyan woman in Kenya in a 'quick' marriage to bring her to England are they legally married in England?
Depends on your definition of 'quick' marriage. Yes, they will be legally married. However, immigration officials will interrogate and if they deem the marriage 'false' ie; only married for residential status. The marriage will be null and void and the Kenyan wonam will be deported.

Citizenship does not affect your ability to get married, only where you can live.
