Here’s the thing...If this was just a “mistake” as the woman who claimed to fact check the Bio, then why did the mistaken “fact” say born in Kenya?

I mean, if it was just a mistake, why not “born in Sweden”, “Born in France” etc. etc.

Kenya just happened to pop up huh?

Well low and behold “some people”, so called “Birthers” had been saying they thought Obama was born in Kenya. Obiviously they are nuts, right? And what coincidence. Right there in Obamas own bio it says, what?

Born in Kenya.

Crazy birthers.........

I don't know if it was a mistake or not or where he was born, but mistakes usually have some connection to something else immediately present in front of you.

If you see "born in Hawaii ... father from Kenya" you might make the mistake of writing "born in Kenya" or "father from Hawaii." Wouldn't that be the commonest kind of mistake?

If you had a friend travelling to Sweden or France, you might accidentally plug those in to what you're writing, but aren't such mistakes less common?

You make the mistake and quickly look over what you've written. If you wrote "Kenya" and see "Kenya" somewhere on the page, you figure you're okay. If you wrote "Sweden" and don't see in in what you've been given, you read it more carefully to see if you got it wrong.

I'm not saying that's what actually happened, but c'mon ...
