Regardless of where your father was born, you are still a citizen and therefore have just as much right as anyone else.

If an American citizen gives birth in Jamaica will the child be able to president of the us?
When my American cousin gave birth in Africa, her daughter was automatically an American citizen. No... that would make the baby an American citizen... but it won't allow a Jamaican mother to stay in America neccessarily! The infant is an American citizen and usually all that is needed is the official birth certificate so the parent(s) have proof that the infant is indeed theirs. It would be in the best interest of the parents to contact the American Embassy in Kingston at 929-4850 for assistance.
Does an African American have to be born in America?
Not all african americans are black. It just means someone who was born in one but is a citizen of the other. For example, someone who was born in Africa but is now an american citizen would be an african american. I'm not sure what others would think about this, but I would suggest you could still be considered an african american if your parents/grandparents immigrated.
How much African American does Obama have in him?
President Obama is 100% American and NOT an African-American at all. In order to be an African-American he (and any other person) would have to maintain a dual citizenship for both Africa and America. From Obama's own admission he was born in America and has NEVER been a citizen of any other country. Obama does however, maintain a personal heritage of both America and Africa...
