Does she have a source for claiming that? You shouldn’t put something in an article unless you have it documented. Journalism 101.

If his mother was a Caucasian American wouldn’t his “ancestral” country equally be the US or whatever European country her family was from?

Let it "Emerge" on their own money....don't force American Taxpayers to fund Obama's Fatherland with payoffs to friends of his.

Africa will always be a 3rd World continent; they don't have people with intiative, intellect, culture, or morality to evolve....never have; never will.

Haha, you made me laugh. 95% of that continent will never leave the dark ages. As long as there are blacks in charge.
