I thought I read in one of the stories that it came down from the website two months after he’d announced his bid for the Senate.
Obama would have run for Senate in 2004 and been seated in 2005. The website wasn’t changed until 2007, two months after announcing his bid for Senate. He also held an Illinois senate seat from 1997 until 2004. Funny how that birth in Kenya wasn’t a problem with his political career until he decided to run for president.
