Maybe.

I don’t refer to my home country as England—granted it has been 400 years. :-)

My grandmother, a first generation American NEVER NEVER referred to Germany as her Home Country. Both of her parents immigrated from Germany in the early 1900’s, but she did not consider herself German.

I find it a strange choice of words. Stranger is where she made that statement. Her husband was going to be nominated as candidate for the President of the United States, yet she calls KENYA his home country? What’s wrong with that picture?

To: Protect the Bill of Rights

As much as I hate to side with you know who I’m going to have to on this. Call me racist and un-PC or whatever but to many blacks, Africa IS their homeland. They call it, “Mother Africa” and get all glassy eyed and have warm fuzzies just thinking of it. Granted, you don’t refer to yourself as European American but they call themselves African Americans despite 90% of them or their ancestors for the past 150 years
ever setting foot on the continent. Of course O. Sr. was Kenyan making Jr. Kenyan and in no way shape or form eligible but whether or not the usurper was born in the Lincoln Bedroom or in a hut in Africa this homeland stuff is much ado about nothing.
