Apparently you haven't read the entire thread. I'm not talking about a Kenyan birth. I said that Obama was supposedly born in 1961, and on his BC it states his father's birth place as Kenya. This cannot be because Kenya was not Kenya until 1963.
It says Kenya, East Africa. Look back in the thread. I posted a link right to the actual document

It says Kenya was referred that way several years before independence.

"Don't you know snopes is a liberal biased rag" (you know it's coming)
Sorry, it is one of the five that were listed in a search as being most impartial.

"Yeah by a liberal listing".....
I think it was called British Kenya back in the British East Africa days.
Just like the Virgin Island. When you say that you are going on vacation, do you say The United States Virgin Islands, no you say The Virgin Islands.

Better yet, what was in that tea that he had for that late lunch yesterday......
Did he grab the wrong leaves

All of that won't fit on the paper
OR worse yet, he couldn't write it/??? Put you mark here Partner.

But I bet if you asked him where he was from, he would say Kenya...
Every one makes everything short. Also "Colony of East Africa" shows ownership.
Kenya....Colony of East Africa is Kenya, just like Ohio state of the United States of America is Ohio.

For a time, it was British East Africa and East Africa Protectorate.
That's worse, I know that won't fit on the paper
If someone asked me where I was from, I am not saying all that, I'm saying Kenya

Why would it? Obama has always been a citizen...couldn't have become President if he wasn't. Trump has always been a fool and this just proves it. End of story. One will go out as having the highest approval rating for a President ever and the other will hopefully go to jail for racketeering and fraud when the Trump U suit is resolved

Also this from the article:
"We are all somewhat impervious to new information, preferring the beliefs in which we are already invested. We often ignore new contradictory information, actively argue against it or discount its source, all in an effort to maintain existing evaluations. Reasoning away contradictions this way is psychologically easier than revising our feelings. In this sense, our emotions color how we perceive “facts.”
Why? Why is it difficult to revise your "feelings" (WTF)?
I've often seen this here and I find it fascinatingly odd. This literally goes against everything objective. I simply cannot imagine operating this way in life.....just slave to preconceived ideas/emotions and finding either discomfort or whatever it is (dissonance) in factual things. As if the burden of proof lies in DISPROVING things instead of proving things. Very bizarre....

Dear toolguru:
Highest approval rating for a president ever? Then why does a solid majority of Americans feel that the country is headed in the wrong direction? And the Trump U civil action is "chicken feed" compared to the money laundering connected to the Clinton Foundation.

Dear toolguru:
By the same token, do you feel that Robert Mushtare's multiple 900s are legitimate (because they couldn't have been certified if they weren't)?
