Normally people who are born in American Samoa are considered American nationals, but are not citizens.  So somebody who was born in American Samoa would normally be ineligible to be President of the United States.  However, Tulsi Gabbard is a natural born citizen, as her mother was a citizen when she was born.  When she turns 35 in April, she will be eligible to be President of the United States.
