This is not clear. According to case law/US law it appears that if you are born outside of the US and only one parent is a US Citizen, you are not automatically a citizen unless you can prove your connection (examples give Paternity with US father , foreign mother) before your 18th/21st birthday (I have read both and it may have changed between the cases cited).
IANAL (AIDPOOTV) so I may be off base, but that seems to be what has happened in past cases (not POTUS but just citizenship).
It is also not clear in many cases if being born outside the US (or Panama, which was included by statute) to US parents makes you "natural born."
I don't think this will turn out to be anything big but it is an interesting case.
