A person is born a citizen of the United States of America if he is born on the the soil belonging to The United States of America or if either parent is a citizen of The United States of America. Obama's Mother was and is a citizen of The United States of America. That makes any child of hers a citizen of The United States of America. Obama was not born in Kenya, but in Hawaii which is also part of The United States of America. Obama is not the first President that was questioned on that. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was elected president in 1932, was born in Canada.

How could Obama's father have been born in Kenya when it wasn't established as Kenya until 1963?
It is important to note that the name of the territory where Obama's father was born is often referred to as "Kenya" for simplicity. However, during his father's birth in 1936, the region was under British colonial rule and known as the British East Africa Protectorate. It later became the British crown colony of Kenya in 1920 and gained independence in 1963. So, when it is said that Obama's father was born in Kenya, it is actually referring to the same geographical region that is now known as Kenya.

Barack Obama, the president, never had Kenyan citizenship because he was born in the USA (in Hawaii) and is an American citizen.

(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.)
