The mother was never Kenyan (though she might have become Indonesian). The father was never Kenyan, but a British subject. Kenya did not become independent until 1963, 2 years after Obama's birth. (For similar reasons, my mother-in-law is a British subject and not a citizen of Zimbabwe.) But there is circumstantial evidence that when Obama was a stepchild to Sotoro, he was made an Indonesian citizen (such as traveling to Pakistan on what could only have been an Indonesian passport).
