Barack Obama, Sr. was born in 1936 in Nyangoma Kogelo village in Kenya a place that is now known as kenya, at age 20 he moved to a place we now call Narirobi, Kenya. so to answer your question, he was born in a place we now know as Kenya, but that was not what it was called in 1936
Some are mistaken, and some want to bask in the perceived glory of a " native son " in such an exalted position.
No- not unless she talking about his father or joking in some strange way or she said it before she knew him well.
Kenya is not a part of the United Sates. Kenya is an independent nation in the continent of Africa; it is not part of the US. And no, Barack Obama was not born in Kenya, he was born in Hawaii.
President Barack Obama never lived in Kenya. He only visited very briefly. His late father, Barack Obama, Sr., was born in Kanyadhiang Village in Kenya and lived in Africa most of his life.
If you are referring to the 44th President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama II, the answer is: No, he is an American. President Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961, a fact that has been thoroughly documented. But if you are referring to his father, Barack Hussein Obama Sr., he was in fact a Kenyan citizen, born in what is now called the Republic of Kenya.
The capital city of Kenya is NairobiNairobi is the capital and largest city of Kenya.
No, she did not. This is a myth put forth by the "Birthers," a group of people who refuse to accept that President Obama was born in the United States. There is no credible evidence that the president's mother went to Kenya in 1961. She was studying in Hawaii at that time, and that is where she gave birth to her son.
President Obama's father was born in Kenya.
The President was born in Honolulu, HI. His father was born in Kenya.

The president's father was born in Kogelo, Kenya.
The current president, Barack Obama, had family descended from Kenya. His father, Barack Obama Sr. was born in Kenya.
No.
Barack Obama's biological father was from Africa-- the country of Kenya; his mom was an American born in Kansas, who later moved to Hawaii, which is where the future president was born.
President Obama never lived in Kenya, although his father was born there and the President has half-siblings there.
Barack Obama Senior was born in Kenya. He later lived in Hawaii and then in Massachusetts before returning to Kenya.
While this could be a "birther" question (19% of Americans continue to believe the president was born in a foreign country; he was not-- he was born in Hawaii), it could also be a very real travel question. President Obama first visited the country of his father's birth in the late 1980s, but due to instability in Kenya, he has not visited recently. He has said he would like to see his relatives, but he will undoubtedly wait until after his presidency to do so.
He did not say this. He was born in Hawaii, this is not a significant issue in any event. He is President and the extremists that say differently should be ignored. If it is not a significant issue then how come he didn't release his long form birth certificate like the 42 people that have served as president before him did? Obama's grandmother is the one who says she was present at his birth in Mombasa, Kenya in 1961, as well as the President of Kenya states Obama was born there. Michelle Obama also added to this idea by stating while in Kenya that "Barrack's home country is Kenya". Furthermore, the city and hospital of Mombasa, Kenya is currently said to be papered with signs claiming "birthplace of Barrack Hussein Obama."
