Yes. So long as one is born in the U.S., it doesn't matter where one's parents were born in regards to being the President.

The only way this can happen if the person’s parents are naturalized citizens of the United States. (I.E. President Bush could still be eligible if his parent had him in Mexico)

Anyone who is born in the U.S. is a natural citizen, period. So you can qualify regardless of where your parents are from.

It doesn't matter where your parents were born. We could elect Barac Obama. He would make a good president.
