A friend of mine sent me this story of his time in the Marine Corps. Read through to the end, its a shocker.
What strikes me most is what he said as to where he grew up: Indonesia. He told me he wanted to be President of the US someday. I remember lightly smiling and commenting that maybe by the time he gets to be 40 or so, America will be ready for a Black man to be President and I wished him luck. We spoke of the racial tensions I saw at home while growing up and I asked him if he ever saw that overseas or since he returned back to Hawaii. I dont remember his answer, but we spoke more of his time overseas and his thoughts on life and philosophy of government. He made some strange comments to me, it was obvious he never set foot for any time in the continental United States and I told him he better realize that he is making judgments about the United States when he himself never actually lived there. I told him, Hawaii aint the United States!
He also told me something that I never forgot, for it caused me to do some other things in an effort to be nice to him and possibly a favor. We spoke of where I had been and the world as I saw it. I told him I had been to Africa , Mombassa specifically, and he said to me abruptly, I was born there. I told him he is not eligible to be president if that was true, but I remembered he said his mom was an American, so, maybe it was okay.

Apparently, he tan's easily. That is, his face and neck are exposed to the sun far more than the rest of him (going off that pic).
Indeed.
Weird, Huh?
and yet he appears to be uniformly dark in this 1977 image:
guess he not only faded, but his body shrunk as he aged.
Well, not really if you think about it.
It's where the term "farmer's" tan comes from. Someone who gets tanned on their arms [or lower legs] (but not the trunk of their body) because they're out in the sun in a t-shirt.
Barry, due to his "profession" and coming from the climes of Chicago and D.C. more than likely wouldn't have gone shirtless (or even short sleeved shirt) too often. Thus, only from his neck up got the sun exposure resulting in the tan that's noticeable over his very lite skinned body (trunk).
Remove the regular exposure to the sun, and his skin returns back to the much lighter shade we see in his early childhood pics as well as the contrast in the other pic of him (on the beach in HI?) recently.
Everything I’ve read, but don’t ask for links I don’t have ‘em, the Obummer was always claiming he wanted to be King as a young man, and claiming descent from a royal line. In that regard, he does run his presidency more like a monarchy (and not a constitutional monarchy either)! His way or the highway. Wish with all my heart there was actual corroboration of all of this.
BTTT
hmmmm.... great thought process. I will look at his photo’s.
Before you get too far along with the media, my suggestion would be that you consider using hypnosis in a taped session to help confirm what you remember and to recover additional details that you might be able to corroborate.
Then, when you are confident in your recollections you could undergo an independent lie detector test. Lie detectors aren’t admissible in court, but they can go a long way with publishers and other audiences in hearsay situations.
It won’t “prove” anything but will provide support to your recollections that the public understands. Naysayers will inevitably ask “Did he take a lie detector test?” And you could say “Yes, I volunteered to take one and passed!”
You might then have a story (with some pictures) that you could take to the tabloids if you wanted to. Some of them would print is as is, but with hypnosis and a lie detector as backup it might be worth more and also encourage others to come forward.
Shoe polish?
I dont care about the specifics of his grqandmother as far as village or city, all I know is the accounts were from her and the translatedlanguage indicates she either meant he is a son by spirit or actuality
Since I heard him say Mombassa, I believe Mombassa. If Grandma wants to call him a son of the tribe/village, Mombassa might be close enough for her
This type of argument is useless, we are guessing her intent.
I prefer to quote the source, “I WAS BORN THERE”
Doh! Bad poster! lol(meekly)
Seriously?
He and the boy to his left were photoshopped into this picture. Their jersey’s are different than everyone else’s.
wanted to add something here
the grandmother comments were known long before October
I heard of them in early summer, I just couldn’t get anyone to send me a valid link! The story was repeated so many times yet there was no source to verify it.
And I didn’t post anything here because I just didn’t think it was going to add to the equation. There was enough out there that should have sunk him but the mainstream media never took any interest in, and that includes FOX
Sad, they demanded to know about Bush’s bicuspids but not about Barry’s Birth
So you're the one that tipped him off to the fact that he would need to have his B.C. amended. All this time, I thought it was Axlerod.
It's all your fault.
...hanging my head...
