Can you show where Obama claims he is a British citizen? Saying that Britain claims you as a citizen and saying you abide by that claim are two VERY different things! In relatives in Ireland and Germany still claim me as family and "one of their own", and my friends in China claim me as a "白中的兄弟" - a white Chinese brother. Yet I am not Chinese nor related to them in any way.
Just last night I received an e-mail that claimed I owed a shipping company hundreds of dollars and should contact them with my account and identity confirmation; of course, I recognize no such claim as I have never shipped anything to Nigeria!
From the official Obama website Factcheck.org:
“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.”
