Kenya became independent on 12 DEC 1963, and was actually called the Dominion of Kenya with Queen Elizabeth II as the official head of state. She was represented by Governor General Malcom MacDonald. On 12-Dec 1964 the Republic of Kenya was declared, and the first head of state was Jomo Kenyatta who ruled until his death in 1978. So it's not BS, Kenya didn't become an official republic until 1964, though they did establish their Constitution in 1963. So if 0 was born in 1961, that would be 2 years before their independence from Brittan.
*SIGH*. The document (IF REAL) was produced in 1964 (not 1961), and Kenya was known as "The Republic of Kenya" since 1963 as has been posted on FR more times than you and I can count.
I REALLY hate it when people plop themselves in the middle of a conversation and make some declarative statement when they don't know what they are talking about or how the conversation has been going.

Exactly the opposite is the case. The claim that Kenya was known as "The Republic of Kenya" since Dec 1963 has been debunked more times than you or I can count, and I've been following the entire discussion all the way through.

That's what I'd say about your thoroughly debunked claim that Kenya has been known as "Republic of Kenya" since Dec 1963.

I don't REALLY care what you hate, and if you don't like open threads get your own damn website. The last I checked this was an open forum and didn't need an invitation from you to join in.
I don't doubt there were references to a republic in 1963, but the official date of the republics bargaining was 12-DEC-1964. You called BS on another Freeper who stated that and it wasn't.
I wasn't claiming the document to be real or fake, I have no idea if it is or not. SIGH!! We really need to focus on defeating O’s Marxist agenda, this issue isn't going to take him down.
