UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA PHILIP J. BERG, ESQUIRE Plaintiff vs. CIVIL ACTION NO: 08-cv- 04083 BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, ET AL Defendants AFFIDAVIT OF BISHOP RON McRAE I, Bishop Ron McRae am over the age of eighteen (18) and not a party to the within action. If called to do so, I could and would competently testify under oath as follows; I am the Continental Bishop who oversees the Anabaptists Churches in North America. I am also the Presiding Elder on the African Presbytery, where we have numerous churches throughout Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and mission works in several other African nations. The African Presbytery is comprised of the national bishops of the various countries we minister in and support, along with our statewide bishops from New York and Pennsylvania. We actively visit and minister throughout these African countries, and do so extensively throughout all of Kenya these last three [3] years. In overseeing the establishment of our churches and presbytery in Kenya, over the last two [2] years we have had personal dealings, continually, with many citizens of Kenya from every tribe and economic standing throughout the wonderful nation of Kenya, with whom the national interests in United States Senator Barack Hussein Obama is a very popular topic of discussion. The tribal cultures of the Kenyanese people have involved much turmoil during the national elections at the end of December 2007 and the beginning of 2008. Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 1 The much published violence that erupted over the presidential elections caught the world’s attention. Myself and several American minister with our church were present during this time in Kenya, and the facts concerning this strife and the ensuing violence were well known, and of common knowledge throughout all of Kenya. The opposition party that was responsible for all of the violence was from the minority Luo tribe, which is a Muslim tribe that supported Mr. Raila Odinga for president. Raila Odinga is a Marxists socialist who graduated from the East Germany Magdeburg University in 1970 on a scholarship from the East German government. He named his first born son after Fidel Castro. Raila Odinga spent six years in prison for his admitted involvement in the bloody coup attempt in 1982 to over take and assassinate Daniel Arap Moi, Kenya’s President. Mr. Odinga has publicly admitted to being the leader of that coup in his 2006. Mr. Odinga is the cousin of United States Senator Barack Obama; Mr. Obama is from the same Muslim tribe, the Luo Tribe, as Mr. Odinga. Senator Obama visited Kenya in August of 2006 and campaigned extensively for his cousin, Mr. Odinga, which gave Odinga a tremendous boost. During Senator Obama’s campaign stops on behalf of his cousin Odinga, the Senator made numerous claims against the democratic government of Kenya and Kenya’s President Mwai Kibaki, claiming they were corrupt, stating often, that Kenya was “ready for change”, just as he has campaigned here in the United States during this Presidential election. It has also been common knowledge throughout Kenya that Senator Obama sent his foreign policy advisor, Mr. Mark Lippert, to Kenya at least three times to advise Mr. Odinga on his campaign strategies. See Mark Hyman’s Washington Times article published October 12, 2008, attached as Exhibit “1”. Moreover, everyone in Kenya is well aware that Senator Obama donated over one million Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 2 American dollars ($1,000,000.00) to his cousin’s, Mr. Odinga’s campaign, which is documented in the Kenyan Political Party, for Mr. Odinga, Orange Democratic Movement [hereinafter “ODM”] along with extensive funds from other Muslim supporters including but not limited to the Muslim son of Muammar Gadhafi, the dictator of Libyan’s Muslim government. These issues are common knowledge throughout Kenya, and the information is publicly documented across the internet. It is detailed in Odinga’s financial reports and strategies ODM Internal Memo documents, attached as Exhibit “2”, which are public records, that a significant portion of Senator Obama’s financial contributions (made through an organization identified as Friends of Senator Barack Obama) were used to help finance both the signed Muslim Memorandum of Understanding as well as the planned violence, murders and bloodshed that occurred in December of 2007. Within the ODM Internal Memo attached as Exhibit “2”, the funds donated by Mr. Obama through “Friends of Senator Barack Obama” were to be used for “Violence as a last result...to discourage voter participation in hostile areas...use ODM agents on the ground to engineer ethnic tensions in target areas...support Kapondi’s forces in Mt. Eglon”, and to do so during “Mid-December”. Unfortunately, the exact violence described in these reports was carried out and occurred at the beginning of the second week of December 2007. Additionally, it is common knowledge throughout both the Christian and Muslim communities in Kenya, that contrary to news media propagandas here in the United States, US Senator Barack Hussein Obama is a Muslim and not a Christian, and that he was born in Mombassa, Kenya and not in the State of Hawaii as falsely purported by the Obama campaign for presidency of the United States. Mr. Obama’s cousin ran his failed campaign for the Kenyan presidency in the identical fashion of Senator Obama’s Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 3 American campaign strategy, and that being to join a nominal Christian church in order to publicly profess to be a Christian, while maintaining their actual Muslim beliefs, in order to sway public opinion away from the actual fact of his strong Muslim beliefs, family and goals. It is a known fact that membership in the United Church of Christ in Chicago, where Barack Obama was a member, does not require Muslim’s to renounce their Islamic faith in order to join the UCC church. Throughout Kenya it is and was well publicized in the media that a Memorandum of Understanding agreement, attached as Exhibit “3”, between Raila Odinga and Sheik Abdullahi Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum, was signed by Odinga on August 29, 2007 in which Raila Odinga promised if elected to implement numerous drastic changes including but not limited to the following. • Recognize “Islam as the only true religion”. • “Islamic leaders would have an oversight role to monitor activities of ALL other religions” [emphasis in the original], • Installation of Shariah courts in every jurisdiction to implement Islamic law. • Implement a ban on Christian preaching. Because of the seriousness of all the above, as a Christian and a citizen of the United States, this preacher could no longer sit idly by knowing these things and continue to minister in both Kenya and the United States. As the presiding bishop over the Continental Presbytery of Africa, I authorized representatives within our church to locate and interview Ms. Sarah Hussein Obama, the actual grandmother of US Senator Barack Obama. Ms. Sarah Obama lives in the Alego-Kogello, approximately 37 miles from Kisumu, where the Anabaptists have a congregation, and where this preacher has preached several times prior to the December elections in 2007, and prior to the planned violence from the Odinga supporters, which erupted. Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 4 With Senator Obama being born in Kenya and not in the United States, he is not a “natural born” citizen and it prohibits him from being eligible to run for and/or serve as President of the United States. Since Senator Obama’s birth was reportedly in 1961, birth records may or may not be available, so I felt it very important to obtain the testimony of his grandmother as a first hand witness, since it is commonly known throughout Kenya, and especially around the Kisumu area, that Sarah Obama was present when Barack Obama, Jr. was born in Kenya. Accordingly, on Thursday, October 16, 2008 Reverend Kweli Shuhudia (actual name temporarily withheld to protect his life), an evangelists with our ministries throughout Africa traveled to Kogello and located Ms. Sarah Obama at her home, see the attached email, attached as Exhibit “4”. Mr. Shuhudia is a very intelligent and educated citizen of Africa, a former teacher and respected evangelist throughout Africa. Mr. Shuhudia acts as our official translator when we are in Africa, and is fluent in both Swahili and English. Mr. Shuhudia met and interviewed Ms. Sarah Obama at length on October 16 lh , during which interview; he called me on my mobile number, see my phone record attached as Exhibit “5”. Mr. Shuhudia called me first on October 16 ,h at 10:33a.m. and advised that he was with Sarah Hussein Obama and that she wanted to speak with me, but the connection was lost. He called me right back at 10:35a.m. and he informed me that there were several hundred people present, celebrating Obama’s success. I questioned him about the format of the phone call and conversation with Ms. Obama, and then informed him that I would call him right back, so it would not cost him international charges for the call. I called back at 10:40a.m. and public music and voices could be heard that were gathered around Kweli Shuhudia. I then spoke with him and requested that they utilize the speaker phone so everyone could hear. The speaker phone Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 5 with its open microphone was utilized with Mr. Shuhudia, Mr. Vitalis Akech Ogombe the Kogelo Community Chairman assisting in the translation work and Ms. Sarah Hussein, along with several hundred people including policeman present and listening to the open conversation between the four of us for approximately 15 minutes. Mr. Vitqalis Ogombe is also the step grandson of Ms. Obama and the cousin of Barack Obama. A third unknown party can be heard periodically interjecting both Swahili and English words in the public discussion and conversation between the four of us. At times the room noise from other peoples’ voices makes some of the swahili difficult to hear, and towards the end of the converstaion several men’s voices are heard that are not identified. As I talked to and questioned Ms. Obama publicly over the open microphone of Mr. Shuhudia’s speaker phone, they would translate what I said to her in Swahili publicly, and then they would translate her Swahili responses to me publicly in English. Ms. Obama can fluently speak Swahili in her native dialect, but cannot read or write. In the ensuing public conversation, I asked Ms. Obama specifically, “Were you present when your grandson Barack Obama was born in Kenya?” This was asked to her in translation twice, and both times she specifically replied, “Yes! Yes she was! She was present when Obama was born”. Though, some few younger relatives, including Mr. Ogombe, have obviously been versed to counter such facts with the common purported information from the American news media that Obama was born in Hawaii, Ms. Sarah Hussein Obama was very adamant that her grandson, Senator Barack Hussein Obama, was born in Kenya, and that she was present and witnessed his birth in Kenya, not the United States. When Mr. Ogombe attempted to counter Sarah Obama’s clear responses to the question, verifying the birth of Senator Obama in Kenya, I asked Mr. Ogombe, how she could be present at Barack Obama’s birth if the Senator was born in Hawaii, but Ogombe would not answer Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae 6 the question, instead he repeatedly tried to insert that, “No, No, No. He was born in the United States!” But during the conversation, Ms. Sarah Hussein Obama never changed her reply that she was in deed present when Senator Barack Obama was born in Kenya. A transcript of this taped public interview is attached as Exhibit “6”. Mr. Shuhudia took photographs during the open conversation and interview with Ms. Sarah Hussein Obama, which photos will be forthcoming. Because of the seriousness of the political situation and the impact of such on a United States Presidential election, and because of the factual reality of tremendous violence in Kenya towards Christians, especially in the immediate area of Kisumu, where both Sarah Hussein Obama and Rev. Kweli Shuhudia live, it is requested that all reasonable and legal steps be taken to secure Rev. Kweli Shuhudia’s identity to the Federal Court alone, in order to protect his life and safety for being willing to provide this very important assistance in gathering this testimony and evidence to be used in any Federal litigation. The above related facts are true and verifiable to the best of my personal knowledge before God Almighty, whose I am and whom I serve. I declare under the penalty of perjury of the laws of the United States, that the foregoing is true and correct. Dated: October cM / . 2008 Bv ttieTtrace of God alone.

From the day that zero told the postman he had come to thank the Ayres family for their help with his education, and said to Hulton that he was going to be President of the United States (this was in the very early eighties) the fix was in, and nothing was going to be able to stop it.
But good to have the AFFIDAVIT OF BISHOP RON McRAE on the record. I remember it well, but there are far too many who have never been aware of this history.
There was also the Rev. Kweli Shuhubia who was involved in Sarah Obama phone call:
11. Obama’s Kenyan grandmother, Sarah Obama has repeatedly stated Obama was born in Kenya and she was present during his birth. Bishop Ron McRae, who oversees the Anabaptists Churches in North America, and Reverend Kweli Shuhubia had the opportunity recently to interview Sarah Obama. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia went to the home of Sarah Obama in October 2008 located in Kogello, Kenya. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia called Bishop McRae from Ms. Obama’s home and placed the call on speakerphone. Bishop McRae asked for permission to tape the conversation, which permission was granted. Because Ms. Obama only speaks Swahili, Reverend Kweli Shuhubia and another grandson of Ms. Obama’s, translated the telephone interview. Bishop McRae asked Ms. Obama where Defendant Barack Obama was born: Ms. Obama answered and was very adamant that Obama was born in Kenya. Bishop McRae asked Ms. Obama if she was present during her grandson’s birth and Ms. Obama answered, “Yes.” Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham a/k/a Ann Obama was eighteen (18) when she gave birth to Obama.12. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia left Kisumu City and traveled to Mombosa, Kenya. After the interview of Sarah Obama In October 2008 Reverend Kweli Shuhubia interviewed personnel at the hospital where Ms. Obama said Obama was born in Kenya. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia then immediately thereafter had meetings with the Provincial Civil Registrar. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia learned there were records of Ann Dunham giving birth to Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. in Mombosa, Kenya on August 4, 1961. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia spoke directly with an Official, the Principal Registrar, who openly confirmed that the birthing records of Senator Barack H. Obama, Jr. and his mother were present; however, the file on Barack H. Obama, Jr. was classified. The Official explained Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.’s birth in Kenya is top secret. Reverend Kweli Shuhubia was further instructed to go to the Attorney General’s Office and to the Minister in Charge of Immigration if he wanted further information.
