http://www.infowars.com/ap-declared-obama-kenyan-born/


What most people know is that the Associated Press (AP) is one of the largest, internationally recognized, syndicated news services. What most people don�t know that is in 2004, the AP was a �birther� news organization.

How so? Because in a syndicated report, published Sunday, June 27, 2004, by the Kenyan Standard Times, and which was, as of this report, available at

http://web.archive.org/web/20040627142700/eastandard.net/headlines/news26060403.htm

The AP reporter stated the following:

Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

This report explains the context of the oft cited debate, between Obama and Keyes in the following Fall, in which Keyes faulted Obama for not being a �natural born citizen�, and in which Obama, by his quick retort, �So what? I am running for Illinois Senator, not the presidency�, self-admitted that he was not eligible for the office. Seeing that an AP reporter is too professional to submit a story which was not based on confirmed sources (ostensibly the Obama campaign in this case), the inference seems inescapable: Obama himself was putting out in 2004, that he was born in Kenya.

The difficulty in finding this gem of a story is hampered by Google, which is running flak for Obama: because if you search for �Kenyan-born US Senate� you wont find it, but if you search for the phrase without quotes you will find links which talk about it.

For those who believe what they see, here is the screen capture of the page from the Kenyan Sunday Standard, electronic edition, of June 27, 2004 � Just in case that page is scrubbed from the Web Archive:

Readers should take note that this AP story, was syndicated world-wide, so you should be able to find it in major newspapers, archived in libraries world-wide. If any reader does this, please let The Post & Email know, so that we can publish a follow up-story. You can scrub the net, but scrubbing libraries world-wide is not so easy.

[efoods]Hanen of Sentinel Blog Radio broke the public news of the existence of this AP story at on October 14, 2009 at 12:31 pm. However, The Post & Email can confirm that a professional investigator had uncovered this story months ago, and that certified and authenticated copies of this report, meeting Federal Rules of evidence, have already been prepared and archived at many locations nationwide.

It should be noted that on January 8, 2006, the Honolulu Advertiser also reported that Barack Hussein Obama was born outside the United States.

http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2006/Jan/08/ln/FP601080334.html

A Chronology of Deceit

One can now ask an important question which has not yet been emphasized enough: �Just when did Obama begin to publically claim he was born in Hawaii?� This question is distinct from the question, �Just where in fact was Obama born?�, and from the other question, �What do official documents say about where he was born?�

Regarding his claims, we can summarize what is known:

1. As of Monday, Aug. 28, 2006, Obama�s Campaign was putting out that he was born in Hawaii. This is known from the introductory speech given by Prof. George A. O. Magoha, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Nairobi, on the occasion of a speech given there by Senator Obama that day. (One presumes that the Vice-Chancellor was given notes from the Obama campaign, as is customary on such occasions)

2. From the newspaper reports above, it is clear that the Obama campaign was putting out that he was born in Kenya, or overseas, during the period of June 27, 2004, until January 8, 2006.

3. In October of 2004, during the ABC Chicago Affiliate�s broadcast of the Obama-Keyes debates, Obama openly admitted � he conceded � that he was not a natural born citizen. (C-Span aired the uncut version of the debates, which contained this exchange, in the second half of April, 2005)

4. It is known from a classmate of Obama at Harvard University, that while at Harvard, Obama at least on one occasion admitted that he was born in Kenya. (This friend went on record on a call in radio program in Idaho in early July, 2009)

If any reader can find a link which documents a claim to a birth location before Aug. 28th, 2006, which differs from this timeline or which supports it; please let The Post & Email know of it, by posting it in the comment section below.

In a follow up report, The Post & Email has published a brief analysis of the Google Newspaper archive, which shows that Obama�s story changed after June 27, 2004.

Finally, that the AP did cover this story, reprinted by the East African Standard, can be seen from the citation made to AP stories about it (Jack Ryan dropping out of the race), in the following contemporary news articles, which however are incomplete:

June 25, 2004 � http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,123716,00.html

June 26, 2004 � Bellview News Democrat

June 26, 2004 � AP Online Story by Michael Tarm

June 25, 2004 � AP Syndicated Story by Maura Kelly Lannan

(Second Source on June 26, 2009, which cites Associated Press Special Correspondent David Espo and reporter Dennis Conrad as contributors to this report)

(Third Source, The Ledger, print edition of June 26, 2009: partial republication)

You wouldn't happen to be pressing this issue because he isn't a white republican? Instead he's an ethnic democrat that has pressed many social issues that tend to affect people that are like him.

This would be worth pursuing if his mother weren't American. But since she was, Obama is a natural-born citizen regardless of where his mother was at the time.

Plus, if someone doesn't know that Obama is a lying bastard already, they certainly aren't going to believe that he lied about this.

Isn't this a common sense among most Canadians? Obama was born in Kenya. It's a fact and he unfortunately didn't do much for Socialism in the United States of America. Confused

Obama is an American.
Obama is President.

If he was doing a good job as President, I'd want him to stay on four more years. I wouldn't care where he was born ...

However, Obama is a terrible President, so I want him out. And I still don't care where he was born ...

Arizona Secretary of State threatens to keep Obama off of the ballot

Quote:
Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett made moves to appease birthers in his state this week, petitioning the state of Hawaii to confirm the existence of President Barack Obama's long-form birth certificate, which the White House released last year.

What apparently did happen is something that is not exactly unheard-of in the media business: A junior staffer made a mistake. As ABC News reported,

Quote:
Miriam Goderich edited the text of the bio; she is now a partner at the Dystel & Goderich agency, which lists Obama as one of its current clients.

�This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me--an agency assistant at the time,� Goderich wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News. �There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more.



now, go take up a nice hobby, like volunteering to hold the puppies while they're gassed at the animal shelter, or something Rolling Eyes

Nohoper doesnt need anything to back up his trolling statements. He's a self-proclaimed 'canadian socialist' whose inspiration is is China & NK.

Really, u should know better Captain! Wink
