Obama's maternal ties to slavery
politico44 ^ | 7/30/12 | BYRON TAU

According to a new study, President Obama is likely related to John Punch, the first enslaved African in the American colonies — by way of his white mother.

“Two of the most historically significant African Americans in the history of our country are amazingly directly related,” said Ancestry.com genealogist Joseph Shumway in a release.

I believe this article to be total Communist propaganda on the part of Obama.

Blacks started slavery in the New World.

The first slave in the New World was John Casor, a black man, enslaved by another black man, Anthony Johnson.

Obama definitely has African ties on his maternal side — and that Punch is the logical candidate.

No particular reason to believe Punch is the ancestor than any other black man. But I guess it makes a better story.

Most people don't realize the color line in colonial days, especially the early colonial days, wasn't nearly as hard and fast as in later days. In fact, North Carolina was one of the states in which black free men were allowed to vote when the Constitution was created.

“...Using colonial Virginia records and a DNA analysis, the researchers conclude that Obama definitely has African ties on his maternal side...”

Who’s DNA analysis?

I'm guessing that this is just a huge bold-faced lie. After all, aren't we all "out of Africa" according to current scientific thinking? On that basis, you could discuss the African roots of Queen Elizabeth II.

Obama's mother? African heritage? I think that they just made that up.

If true, which I doubt, this would not be relevant to anything but Sacha Obama’s genealogy project for school. Jeb Bush really is related to two recent US Presidents, including the last legitimate President of the United States, but that doesn’t make me want to vote for Jeb.

If DNA could be collected, it would likely show that Obama is related to Satan.

Who gives a damn what it’s related too, Obama needs to be removed from power.

Also, his dad is mostly of Arab descent. Peaceful Islam is OK with slavery. They are also OK with killing gays and honor killings.

Anyone with a knowledge of the history of slave trading on the African continent knows who the slave traders were. They were Arab by a huge majority. The blacks who are muslim mostly converted to avoid slavery, since muslims weren’t allowed to own another muslim. Christians, Buddhists, are good to go. Many of the blacks converted to Islam for this reason and ended up helping the Arabs enslave the fellow blacks. If they are black aFrican muslims, their history is as slave traders, not slaves as a rule.

His father’s tribe was possibly complicit in capturing and selling the first slave to come to America. More likely than any of the lies this POS and his propaganda machine tell.

Obama’s great aunt married this guy

“For more than 35 years, I’ve been a “Hired Gun”, successfully extracting and separating banks from some of their money. Well, I guess a better way of putting it would be that I’ve been employeed by some of the finest bank computer software and service providers
for the past three and a half decades and have thus managed to eke out a reasonably comfortable existance for myself and family. “

“In the Alltel Little Rock office Have installed and tested all Systematics software products at dozens of domestic client locations as well as many major international institutions in England, large banks in Puerto Rico, the National Bank of Greece and Riyadh Bank of Saudi Arabia.”

“”What are you complaining about now? Sounds like you’re trying to conjugate the meaningless “if”. If I had a Pentium IV... If I had a bigger harddrive... If I had an DSL hookup... If I had a 427 Cobra... Hey, the race is not always won by the the guy with the biggest, fastest machine. Patience, perseverance and preparation pay off too, especially in endurance runs and over the long haul. So when the green flag comes down, just pull up your socks and give it your best. Who knows, somewhere, someday, someone just might come up to you and say, “Smile”, and you’d better do it too, buster, ‘cause I just might be watchin’.””

Cecil’s daughter was employed by an all girls school in Saudi Arabia was married to this guy

That is if you believe the composite lies of who HE says HE IS.
