Default New Obama Narrative Being Created: He Is Now Decendent Of 1st Black Slave In America Through His White Mothers Side

A new narrative of Obama's life story is being created for voters of the 2012 election in order to label anyone racist who question his past. This is a way to solidify his base. Saying the first black president shared the same blood as the first black slave in America is the ultimate leftest imagery...that his white mother is part black. I don't believe this for one minute. First of all, not only is Kenya thousands of miles further away than west Africa where slaves were shipped from, a ship full of slaves would have to sail thousands of additional miles to get around the continent of Africa. (There was no Suez Canal until 1869 four years after Slavery in the US ended.) So let me get this straight, his mother descended from a negro that was the slave, and his father descended from a negro that sold the slave to the Jewish slave traders. Clearly the story is a lie.





President Obama related to country
quote:
This would mean that the first documented slave and the first African American president have a shared ineage, claim researchers. Said Ancestry.com's genealogist Joseph Shumway, "John Punch was more than likely the genesis of legalized slavery in America. But after centuries of suffering, the Civil War, and decades of civil rights efforts, his 11th great-grandson became the leader of the free world and the ultimate realization of the American Dream."

I wonder if those creating the narrative will also trace the geneology of Barak Obama, Sr., the Arab influence in that tribe and find the slave trading history on his paternal side. Likely, as with the WH security leaks, only that which is favorable will be released.

Where in the linked article does it state that President Obama's maternal ancestor came from Kenya?

steve, how can you acknowledge that the claim is a relation to his mother's side........ then jump to kenya?


( for the record, i'm in agreement with a previous poster who believes this is just ancestry.com trying to drum up attention ).

Ancestry.com has also released that Obama is related to Honey-Boo-Boo...on one of his father's sides.

The map included with your post came from davidduke.com - you just believe anything that comes from one of your "reliable" sources, don't you? No matter how wrong it is....

Being East African, if Obama's family had slave past; they were slaves to ARABS.
