Barack Obama’s ancestors owned slaves.
A genealogist at the Library of Congress discovered in 2008 that Barack Obama’s ancestors owned slaves. The Chicago Tribune reported:
Many people know that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s father was from Kenya and his mother from Kansas.
But an intriguing sliver of his family history has received almost no attention until now: It appears that forebears of his white mother owned slaves, according to genealogical research and census records.
The records, which had never been addressed publicly by the Illinois senator or his relatives, were first noted in an ancestry report compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner, who works at the Library of Congress and practices genealogy in his spare time. The report, on Reitwiesner’s Web site, carries a disclaimer that it is a “first draft” –one likely to be examined more closely if Obama is nominated.
According to the research, one of Obama’s great-great-great-great grandfathers, George Washington Overall, owned two slaves who were recorded in the 1850 census in Nelson County, Ky. The same records show that one of Obama’s great-great-great-great-great-grandmothers, Mary Duvall, also owned two slaves.
The Baltimore Sun retraced much of Reitwiesner’s work, using census information available on the Web site ancestry.com and documents retrieved by the Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives, among other sources. The records show that Overall, then 30, owned a 15-year-old black female and a 25-year-old black male, while Mary Duvall, his mother-in-law, owned a 60-year-old black man and a 58-year-old black woman.

No biggie, owning slaves is STILL LEGAL under sharia law! And it always will be.
Just like blacks can murder other blacks, its ok
And it’s all good to call each other N-words.
Shouldn’t all Barack Hussein statues be torn down?
Ooooohhhhhh boy. This will be fun.
I’d be willing to wager that his presumed father’s family owned slaves and perhaps still do, but for some strange reason it only counts if white people in the United States or the English colonies that became the United States did it.

No Library - no statues of Obama... Hello New York Times...
and his father is from a Muslim tribe that is known to have captured Africans and sold them into slavery.
Marking for later.

One of the first document slave owners is the USA was a dark featured gentleman

His alleged "father".
She had "white guilt"....explains everything.
It can be summarized as “His Arab ancestors sold his Black ancestors to his White ancestors”.
I stand corrected, thanks
Barack’s father’s immediate family were and are still slavers.
Forget about the Obama family owning a couple of African-American slaves. That’s just peanuts. Kenya, the heritage country of Barack Hussein Obama and his family tree comes from a long line of “Muslim African” slave traders, who have been plying the trade of Black slaves & Black females to the entire world for centuries and, they are still going full bore today in Africa and the Middle East.
Who the heck do you think went out through Sub-Africa rounding up rounding Black tribesmen and their families to be sold off as slaves to the Middle East, the Far East, Northern Africa, North America, South America, The Caribbean Basin. The British, the American, the Dutch, The Spanish, The Portugese, The French, slave traders etc., got their slaves from Obama’s forebears to ship around the world. Obama, birthed From the Muslim slave traders of Kenya, East Africa.
Folks, sometimes the truth hurts...but, the truth is still the truth.
