I agree with this article, the truth is he probably lied to get some sort of scholarship and has been trying to cover it up ever since.
"Theft", simple theft, is always a motive that must be examined.
This seems to be the most likely scenario to me.
I thought that’s what they would come up with first, but this “mis-identified” thing is laughable.
Recently the delusional Joe Biden said “I can be President.” Imagine if the allure of the Presidency was too much for his limited neurological circuits to handle. In a bold power move he announces “Yes! Yes! Obama was born in Kenya. What’s more I can show you just how the birth certificate was forged. I am the true President. Obama is a fraud!” Things could get interesting.
Whether he was really born in Kenya, or possibly in Hawaii really isn’t the problem here. This poser has used his lineage shamelessly, altering the facts whenever it suited him. Somewhere along the line, a Kenyan (foreign) birth suited him, either for the novelty as an obstacle then accomplishment to attaining lesser offices, or to just get a preferential break in college admission.
It finally has come to the conundrum of being an inconvenient question with respect to his right to office of the Presidency. Either way, the lies (and purpose) of what he’s done present a very daunting task for him and the MSM who protects him. His side is full of lies, pathetic explanations and outright collusion.
I came to the same conclusion yesterday:
t would not surprise me if Obama lied about being born in Kenya to present himself as special or unique. Otherwise he was just an ordinary American born to a white woman, abandoned by his black father, raised by his white grandparents, and sent to a prestigous private school. What’s special about that?
He was clearly ashamed of his white family and had abandonment issues with his father. It’s not unusual for abandoned children to seek some way to identify/connect with their missing parents. Daddy went to Harvard. So Obama went to Harvard. Daddy was from Kenya. So Obama wanted to be from Kenya.
Being special/different opened doors for him until his political aspirations threatened to close those doors. So he discarded the old narrative and disassociated himself with those who had helped him create it. Then he set about creating a new narrative - one that fit his presidential aspirations - and associated himself with those who could best help him achieve his goal.
He is a documented liar. Always has been; always will be.
I think this author nails it. Obama fraudulently claimed his Kenyan roots to gain an advantage in college admissions and ‘diversity’ cred on campus.
The bottom line is forgotten by the ‘is he or not’ born in Kenya.
The Epic Fail of the msm and Dems themselves - vetting.
The combing of garbage from Palin’s residence is now ‘vetting’, to prevent Americans from a worse than death fate.
Yet in the post modern world of affirmative action, truth is irrelvant. Everything on Obama's resume is a fabrication, contrivance, or construct...and he gets a pass.
If he had not put out a fake birth cert. in response to Trump, and created a fake selective service document, I would agree with you. We’ll see what other stuff Sheriff Joe’s investigators come up with. Also, Arizonia’s SOS wants the documentation from Hawaii in order for Obama to get on the ballot. I look forward to seeing how he responds to that.
Obama was born in Kenya and not Hawaii.
I’m with you...this could be fun!
I am in the exact same boat. As much as the birthers hate it hear it, I'm pretty sure he is a US citizen. It makes sense that he simply lied on his application to get scholarship funds. If he wasn't a citizen, you'd think the DNC would have known and thought him too much of a risk as a candidate.
Regardless, I do firmly believe he should still be held accountable for lying to get government aid. That needs to get broadcast all over the news.
“...I have to confess that for the first time, given this revelation, I have the tiniest soupçon of doubt.”
Well, if this is the first thing that has raised doubt in the author’s mind, then he is either not a critical thinker, or he has not been paying attention. No real point to reading any further in the article.
This is the most plausible explanation I’ve read. Given that we’ve already seen another fictional Ivy League “diversity” story (Elizabeth Warren’s) fall apart this month under close scrutiny, who knows?
If CNN wanted to boost their disastrous ratings, maybe they could do an investigation into this matter...
how about The Mystery of the Main Stream Media?
The silence is deafening
Obviously Obama is the original birther . . .
This story is more about the role of the media and the powerful indictment against them!
There is no doubt Obama is a "US citizen" -- that's not at issue. What remains open to serious discussion is whether, as the Constitution requires, he is a natural-born citizen ... a profound difference.
