they were his by \u201cautomatic operation\u201d of British and Kenyan law and \u201cby descent\u201d from his Kenyan father.<\/p>\n<p>However, at the time of their independence in 1963, Kenyans were not too keen on the idea of adults holding dual nationality.\u00a0 Chapter VI, Section 97[1] of the 1963 constitution provided that: <em>\u201c<\/em><em>A person who, upon the attainment of the age of twenty-one years, is a citizen of Kenya and also a citizen of some country other than Kenya <\/em>(Barack Obama, Jr.)<em> shall, subject to subsection (7), cease to be a citizen of Kenya upon the specified date unless he has renounced his citizenship of that other country, taken the oath of allegiance and, in the case of a person who was born outside Kenya, made and registered such declaration of his intentions concerning residence as may be prescribed by or under an Act of Parliament.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Since there is no known evidence that Obama ever took steps to renounce his American citizenship, he automatically lost his Kenyan citizenship on or about his 21<sup>st<\/sup> birthday.\u00a0 However, the newly adopted 2010 Kenyan constitution brought Obama back into the fold by creating a new category of Kenyan citizenship called \u201ccitizen by birth.\u201d\u00a0 Chapter 3, Section 14 of the 2010 constitution provides as follows: <em>\u201c<\/em><em>(1) A person is a citizen by birth if on the day of the person\u2019s birth, whether or not the person is born in Kenya, either the mother or father<\/em> <em>of the person is a citizen<\/em> (of Kenya).<em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201c(5) A person who is a Kenyan citizen by birth and who, on the effective date, has ceased to be a Kenyan citizen because the person acquired citizenship of another country, is entitled on application to regain Kenyan citizenship.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In other words, Chapter 3, Section 14, Subsections 1 and 5, invest Obama with status as a Kenyan \u201ccitizen by birth\u201d and allow him to apply for reinstatement as a citizen of Kenya.\u00a0 The 2010 constitution also reversed the Kenyan policy on dual citizenship in Obama\u2019s favor.\u00a0 Chapter 3, Section 16 of the new constitution provides that, <em>\u201c<\/em><em>A citizen by birth does not lose citizenship by acquiring the citizenship of another country.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>What this tells us is quite disturbing.\u00a0 It tells us that, since August 4, 2010, Barack Obama has been a \u201ccitizen of Kenya by birth.\u201d\u00a0 It is precisely the reason why the Founding Fathers insisted that only \u201cnatural born\u201d citizens should ever serve as president or vice president.\u00a0 Having been born with dual US-British citizenship, Barack Obama does not qualify as \u201cnatural born.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the 2012 Kenyan constitution is even more Obama-friendly.\u00a0 Chapter 9, Section 137 of the constitution provides that: <em>\u201c<\/em><em>(1) A person qualifies for nomination as a presidential candidate if the person\u2026 is a citizen by birth;\u201d\u00a0 <\/em>However, in order to prevent a person with divided loyalties from ever becoming President of Kenya, Chapter 9, Section 137 also provides that: <em>\u201c(2) A person is not qualified for nomination as a presidential candidate if the person\u2026 owes allegiance to a foreign state;\u201d<\/em>\u00a0 In short, upon completion of his four years in the White House, Obama will be eligible\u00a0 to serve two five-year terms as President of Kenya\u2026 so long as he first renounces his U.S. citizenship.<\/p>\n<p>A suspicious person might suspect that the $23 million spent in Kenya in 2010 might have been a mere down-payment on Obama\u2019s long-term plans, a pittance when compared to what we are spending in Kenya in 2012.\u00a0 According to a June 20, 2012 WND article by Steve Peacock, \u201cBarack Obama administration spending and projects in Kenya have become so voluminous that (USAID) must hire more contractors to oversee endeavors other providers already carry out across the African nation.\u201d\u00a0 In other words, Obama is spending so much money in Kenya that he needs to hire more overseers to oversee the overseers.<\/p>\n<p>The $480 million now being spent by USAID in Kenya \u201cencompasses numerous assistance projects in general areas such as health, population, and HIV\/AIDS; basic education; youth; governing justly and democratically; and economic growth, environment, and natural resources management.\u201d\u00a0 However, this amount of money represents just over half of the total that is spent in Kenya, the largest recipient of U.S. aid in sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n<p>If one were a bit Machiavellian, one might suggest that, for Obama to spend the equivalent of $23 for every man, woman, and child in Kenya (not an insignificant sum in that country), he has learned his vote-buying lessons well in the Democratic precincts of south Chicago.\u00a0 And to those who suggest that Obama may not be happy ruling over a population of only 39 million people, after having used a population of 314 million as his own private socialist laboratory, allow me to suggest that Obama may have something far more grandiose in mind.\u00a0 After winning election as President of Kenya, what\u2019s to stop a man who\u2019s seen as God-like in Africa from confederating all of the nations of sub-Saharan Africa into one large union, much like the United States of America?\u00a0 He might even call it the United States of Africa (USA), while he advertises himself as the \u201cGeorge Washington of Africa,\u201d the most powerful black man in world history.<\/p>\n<p>Obama would have yet another distinction to add to his Nobel Peace Prize\u2026 after having done absolutely nothing in the interest of world peace.\u00a0 He will serve as president in a country where they\u2019ve erected a statue of him <em>before<\/em>\u2026 not <em>after<\/em>\u2026 he served as president of the country, a truly remarkable achievement.\u00a0 And finally, renouncing their American citizenship and acquiring Kenyan citizenship will give Michelle Obama something she\u2019s always longed for\u2026 a country she can be truly proud of.<\/p>\n<p>Barack Hussein Obama, President of Kenya?\u00a0 Who knows?\u00a0 When a man of his meager abilities can work his way into the U.S. presidency, we should not be surprised at anything he might do.\u00a0 Just remember\u2026 you read it here first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, Barack Hussein Obama, President of Kenya.\u00a0 Farfetched?\u00a0 Out of the question?\u00a0 Perhaps.\u00a0 Perhaps not.\u00a0 Allow me to make my case.
