Notice that they were unable to check Obama’s birth record. So that’s at least twice that he refused to allow access to it.
They checked his marriage document and a number of others, but it’s perfectly possible to change you name on such documents, legally or often casually.
Also, his first name originally was not Barack but Baraka, which means sanctified or holy in Arabic, i.e., “Holy Hussein.”
So this does NOT disprove that story, which missionaries in Kenya might have gotten from his family before they were instructed to change their accounts to reporters.
We know that Barack’s step grandmother told reporters that the family was Muslims before she later started telling them they were Christians—presumably on Barack’s instructions.
So, I don’t know for sure if it’s true, but this does not disprove the story, as it claims to do.
Incidentally, Kenyan missionaries were also pooh-poohed for saying that Barack’s cousin Odinga’s followers murdered Christians. But that is well known to be true, it’s just not something the press likes to remember or connect the dots on.
This man is really scarry to me.
