According to a post I saw yesterday, the Kenyan constitution clearly states that a foreign national obtaining Kenyan citizenship must renounce that foreign citizenship in order to be a Kenyan citizen. Therefore, the only way Obama legally could be a Kenyan would be for him to have renounced his US citizenship. This needs to be looked into.

He renounced his US citizenship at 2 years old. Pretty thin.

Actually all he would had to do was renounce it before he lost his Kenyan Citizenship on one of his many trips there.

As has been pointed out to me in various COLB threads The US does not recognize renouncing your US citizenship if you continue to use a US passport like in the case of Marc Rich who became a Spanish Citizen and renounced his US citizenship to escape justice here in the US.

1.) COLB
Proven fake by more than one source
2.) Sketchy childhood
We know some details - Lots of gaps
3.) College thesis has vanished
Was it anything like Michele’s?
4.) Overseas travel
Pakistan? Why?
5.) Law records
What cases did he represent?
6.) Senate records disappeared
What was he trying to hide?
7.) Associations
Rev Wright, Ayers, Michele etc.
8.) Senate voting record
That speaks for itself
9.) SCOTUS
10) I’m clinging to my guns and religion

A vote for McCain is a vote against Obama

It's near impossible to look into any of this stuff. Seems the web has undergone some serious scrubbing! There are lots of "dark" pages out there.

His birth certificate is bogus we know that thanks to polarik and techdude,primarily techdude, who is a forensics expert.The work they did on Atlas shrugs and Texas darlin' is incomparable.

Chances are real good, he is at the very least, a dual citizen if not Kenya(back then all muslim born babies born in other countries were automatically registered as born in the country of their father) than possibly canada or indonesia where his name was Barry Souterra(sp) It's my understanding that the constitution allows a dual citizen to run for the office of President but not actually hold the office(yeah I know sounds spastic but that's what I read and no I don't have the link handy).

Our best bet is that Hillary and bubba already have a handy dandy plan for bamby.

I agree, but also I am wondering what they are waiting for.

Forget the citizen angle - it’s a non-starter.

What is more intriguing is that Obama has never released any of his grades - at Occidental, Columbia, or Harvard.

When it comes to intelligence, which his followers and the media say is genius level, there is no actual measure as to how smart (dumb?) this moron really is. All they fall back on is that he was President of the Harvard Law Review, which was not determined by grades, but PC considerations (like we need a black pronto!).

His real intelligence is marked by “57 states” and “tire pressure” and his “uncle liberating Auschwitz”.

Start demanding Obama release his grades.

And only the 2nd Democrat one, I believe. The other 3 would have been Republicans.

That would follow if only one were to accept as fact that Barry is a U.S. citizen to begin with. The Borg Queen isn't done her scheming yet. I bought an extra box of kettle corn just for those anticipated fireworks. LOL

(Things you might not know about Barack Obama (Holds Kenyan since 1963 citizenship))

The only thing I know about Obama that matters is that he is an Anti-American Socialist.
After that, nothing he says or does from this point forward would ever make him acceptable as President of the United States of America.

"God D@MN @MERICA!"

To say he wasn't aware of this man's ideology after 20 years is akin to Bart Simpson saying he didn't do it. Obama is a liar.

Perhaps the drama of Denver. Remember they feel like they have been dissed by the party so what better way to even the score? This isn’t about winning this is all about them.

In the BIG Picture none of this stuff matters.
The point is enough American Citizens voted for a person that is anti American, considers themselves to be a “world citizen” and is a socialist come wannabe Communist by ideology and agenda.
He is just a person, he may come and he may go, but the fact remains that we had that5 many American voters willing to destroy their own Nation..........

Obama’s racism runs deep. Great article at littlegreenfootballs about his community activist days.
As long as you have affirmative action, quotas, apologies and “deeds not words”, the black community will never live up to their full potential and always have a sense of entitlement.
