Obama Is A Kenyan Citizen

This was previously reported back in 2007 but didn't get any attention from the mainstream media:
U. S. Senator Barack Obama is a citizen of Kenya and became a citizen of Kenya under the Independence Constitution of Kenya in 1963. Obama has never renounced his Kenyan citizenship. He is also a U. S. Citizen.

“Under the Independence Constitution of Kenya, Obama became a Kenyan citizen on December 12, 1963. He has never renounced his Kenyan citizenship. On his senate web site, Obama tap dances around his own dual nationality when discussing his father. Obama obviously knows, because his father told him, that he also held/holds Kenyan nationality.

“Once again, we find Barry O concealing fascinating information about his identity. There is nothing unusual about dual nationality. Indeed, ancient Roman Law doctrines of jus sanguini and jus soli come into play, because both Kenya and the U. S. recognize dual nationality. Once again, the issue is not ‘legality.’ The issue is the cover-up; Obama’s concealment of his own identity. From us, and most of all from himself.
As far as I can tell, nowhere does he denounce his Kenyan citizenship. Of course, the fact that he is a Kenyan citizen is not mentioned on his campaign website. I guess he sometimes forgets what country he is talking about when speaking. It must be Kenya, becasue it sure isn't America he talks about.

What caught my attention was this story in the Rocky Mountain News which is titled "Things you might not know about Barack Obama"

Now about that birth certificate, don't we have a right to a real copy instead of the phony copy that is currently being passed around?

Hey, who that is American, knew this guy's name before he decided to run for President? Like with John Edwards affair and love child, maybe the drive by media might want to take one more try at some real reporting for a change -- Before all your credibility gets thrown away on Democrat campaigns.
