What is so amazing, is that this is still being discussed. Check this out on Snopes.
"The Fourteenth Ammendment states "all persons born or naturalized in the Untied States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are cizitens of the Untied States". Since Haiwaii is part of the Untied States, even if Barack Obama's parents were both non-U.S. citizens, who hadn't even set foot in the country until just before he wa born, he sitll qualify as a natural born citizen.
