That is what the DISSENT in WKA complained about...but Obama wasn’t raised as a Kenyan, was he?

The dissent was responding to the plaintiff's argument which the majority punted in favor of its new concept "citizenship by birth" via the 14th amendment. The WKA decision otherwise affirmed that the nomenclature of the founders considered the natives or natural born citizens to be those born in the country of citizen parents. As far as Obama being raised Kenyan, the answer is no. He was raised as an Indonesian. I think I already mentioned he is a multinational with citizenships on four continents. With an actual natural born citizen, there's no natural inclination for ANY foreign allegiance, while Obama has several conflicts of nationality interests.

I suspect Obama has more loyalty to Rev Wright than his father...Obama is a racist, not a Kenyan.

Rev. Wright was a tool for Obama to get street credibility as an African American. Since Obama was raised as Indonesian and later by white grandparents, he didn't have much exposure to African American culture.

“He was raised as an Indonesian.”

Not hardly. Please don’t make up historical facts the way you make up legal theory.

And the dissent was NOT responding to the plaintiff’s argument, unless you think the plaintiff was arguing to be allowed to run for President.
