August 21, 1959 Hawaii became the 50th state.
Anyone born in Hawaii on or after that date is a "natural born citizen." of the U.S.A.
Anyone born before that date in Hawaii territory is not a "natural born cititzen" of the U.S.A.

Adage: 2 things are certain in life; Death & Taxes. Therefore; God & Beelzebub had a meeting to fix the problem. A mighty storm prevailed for ages until finally they ended the storm with the agreement: From now on Anyone whom chooses doesn't have to die. "Everyone wins said Beelzebub. You get an eternally grateful bunch of worshippers praying forever for lower taxes as I goad & prod them forever with higher & higher taxation."
