“African press International is supposed to support Africans and African-American view,”
So every AA thinks the same and they all march in lock-step, is that right michelle?
I can’t believe the DNC would let her do that.
Your source is mistaken.
A minor cannot renounce his American citizenship, nor can others do it for him.
Depending on Indonesian law, it is perhaps true that his parents may have opted for Indonesian citizenship for him.
If that were the case, given dual citizenship, Obama could've renounced his American citizenship when he reached his majority.
There is no evidence, however, that he did.
May I reply on this?
I would imagine that API will stand by the story. It was a phone call, I am rather certain it was recorded.
I don’t know. I visited the site and its African stories rang true. They seemed to cover some of the happenings in a news fashion. It didn’t seem a cyberspace version of World News Weekly. I would think they’d want to protect any future they had in the business and not put on a fake story. BTW what i get out of this ,if true, is that this woman is nuts.
I always thought they were legit. When a site puts someone’s comments in quotes, they have made a tape IMHO.
How does she know he was born in Hawaii — did she see the official birth certificate?
I think they were planning to get him elected and then challenge the Constitution.
This does explain why he visited Pakistan in 1981 when Pakistan was on the forbidden list for Americans to visit except as a Government official. Also in 1981 you had to be Muslim to be admitted into Pakistan.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, why doesn’t he just present his birth certificate and his papers to the court and put an end to all this?
sure
The question of how Obama traveled to Pakistan is indirect inferential evidence. Easier on an Indonesian passport, so it is rumored.
I doubt it. I can't believe Michelle would do this on her own. I don't think she is dumb enough to say Barry is adopted.
If she really DID make this call, obama just can say, "No, Michelle has it wrong. She wan't there, I was. I was NOT adopted."
Other threads on the sameo were brutally knocked down and dragged our of the ring. Tough kickboxing season this year.
Exactly, supply the proof so everyone can get on with their lives, or drop out.
The court should see the importance of this and force him to do so (since if he can prove he is a citizen, he’s not willing to do so for some odd reason).
You cannot have dual citizenship in Indonesia. At 18 he would have had to confirm he wanted to be an American citizen and if he didn’t then he would remain an Indonesian citizen. I have a cousin who settled in England after he retired from the military. At 18 they had to renounce either British or American citizenship.
He traveled in 1981 to Pakistan and at that time Americans were not allowed to travel to Pakistan except on Government business and you had to be Muslim. He sure didn’t use an American passport in 1981. He was over 18 when he traveled so the time to renounce his Indonesian citizenship had passed. That is why Berg wants the paperwork when he swore allegiance to the United States at 18 if he was born in Hawaii and his Kenyan grandmother made it up that she was at his birth in Kenya.
This thing reads like a Nigerian e-mail spam . . . I am Hoodoo Blusman and I need to deposit 1 million U.S. dollars in your account . . . by the way, Michelle Obama said hello . . .
I have the source code for two of the pulled threads.

I googled African Press International and clicked on the first link. This is the link to the opening page, left hand side, top link, is for the Shocking Development... : |

He couldn’t have traveled to Pakistan on a US passport because Pakistan was on the black list of the state department except for Government employees plus you had to be Muslim to travel to Pakistan in 1981.
