Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

Do you realize that although you keep suggesting that I should search for your ad, you’ve given me absolutely *nothing* to go on so far? All you’ve given in terms of search parameters is it’s 1) a campaign ad, that 2) misspells Obama’s first name.

You haven’t said whether I should be looking for a print ad or a television ad or an internet banner ad. If print, you haven’t said whether it was in a newspaper or a magazine or was campaign literature. You haven’t said whether it was an official campaign ad or a third party ad. You haven’t given any information about the ad’s content that might be useful in narrowing the field, like what the ad was about, or whether it was a pro-Obama ad or mudslinging ad. You admitted that you don’t know what campaign it was from, so you haven’t been able to say whether it’s a Senate or Presidential ad, whether it’s a general election or primary ad, or even what *year* I should be looking at. And I’m not entirely clear as to whether you’ve personally seen the ad yourself (say, on TV or in a newspaper), or whether you just remember it being discussed online by other people.

Now if you could narrow down the field of possibilities from ‘any Obama ad, ever’, then searching for it might be feasible. But searching for it with no more information than you’ve given so far is a fool’s errand.

Elderberry found another Barrack with two r’s.

Follow Elderberry's link. It's a usage of 'Barrack' with two r's...from an anonymous chain e-mail.

His tour ends in late November and he should be home by Christmas.

Wow two Marines in your family!

Congratulations on your daughter’s promotion.

What is your son’s first name, so we can put him on our prayer list.

[OafOfOffice]

I know, amazing. And if we had never been tipped off by a anonymous to another website, it would not stick in my mind as much. But compare the thought to be father and possibly malcolm x, I would say X marks the spot.

[joesjane]

exactly, I think it would be relevant if it was pre 2007.

[TheBigJ]

Wow, checking out all these links with Kenyan-born Obambi...

Ok, who pissed off the CIA? ;)

[joesjane]

well she did marry a guy from Kenya, and then moved on to the Indonesian guy. Seems to me she showed a history of lovin’ life in a little mud hut.

[joesjane]

more like Eric Holder minions...

[joesjane]

maybe he married the father’s widow? That does happen in middle eastern cultures.

Examples of Barrack are all over. I found the below examples in a few minutes of searching.

Barrack Obama

By JOSEPH OJWANG.

As Barrack Obama, the recent landslide winner of an Illinois State senate seat, prepares to assume office, members of his father’s family back in Kenya are “building castles in the air,” as some have dismissed them for doing, in the belief that Obama will only serve those who elected him.

Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate

The two “r”’s spelling seems to be common in foreign sources.

By the way, I found these by simply plugging “Barrack Obama” (without the quotes) into Google, and they were on the first page in a News Results subsection.

A few more pages and I get this one:

I love “skeptics” who aren’t skeptical enough to type two words and click a mouse a few times, don’t you? :)

That's all well and good, but little jeremiah's stated claim was that that spelling once appeared in an actual, approved campaign advertisement for Obama. Not just some random foreign news story about the guy, but usage straight from the man's own campaign. The implication being that since the campaign thought the spelling was OK, maybe the East African Standard's identical spelling shouldn't be treated as a mistake.

And so far, not only has nobody been able to produce such an ad, nobody's been able to provide any details *about* it either.

Even the White House is NOT sure who he is:

Someone might want to look into whether an impostor took President Obama’s place during his trip to Russia

In a release touting an agreement between Obama and President Dmitry Medvedev over how to craft a follow-up to the START arms reduction treaty, the White House claimed the document had been signed by one “Barak Obama.”

Gee, how many aliases does this guy Obama have?

[little jeremiah]

If you wnat to find the ad, look through the long thread here. Or just read for dozens of hourss.

Or don’t.

I could give a flying ****. I do not care what you think, what you believe, or what you write. I will not read your comments any more; I only read the one you responded to my assertion about seeing the two R’s. Now I’m back to not reading any comments by any 0bama suckup.

Remain in the darkness if that is your desire. Everyone gets what they want, combined with what they deserve. It’s the law of karma, or as you sow, so shall you reap.

Have fun reaping!
