It's almost impossible for a minor to renounce U.S. citizenship. The relevant law is the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Obama was seven when he went to Catholic school in Indonesia.

The U.S. is a signor of the Hague Convention's standards for international adoption, and those rules do allow the legal parents and guardians to renounce any former citizenship of a custodial minor. Upon reaching the age of 18, the minor can go before the appropriate US State Dept Official and apply for re-instatement of citizenship, and swear allegiance to the US.
There is no evidence of Obama ever doing that , and even if he did, he would then be a "Naturalized citizen" at that point and NOT "natural born" and even if ever was "natural born" would have lost that status forever and therefore regardless is NOT eligible for Office of The President of the United States of America.
