Best Answer

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."

Did Obama's Mom ever travel to Kenya?

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.

Why does Obama's fathers birth certificate show he was born in Kenya when Kenya did not exist then?

There are two valid reasons that people "Say" he has a Kenya birth Certificate. 1st He was born in an area that is now part of Kenya 2nd Any reprint of his Birth Certificate will be issued by Kenya. So the birther conspiracy mess continues to churn. I hope in a Hundred years Historians will look back and laugh at foolish this all is. Because this level of stupid gets up my nose.
