So, what's your point?
People have different ways of talking, speaking, phrasing, etc. "Home country" apparently can only mean "place of birth" however so have at it.

Umm, half of his family lives there. And it is his ancestral homeland.

Boy you guys are reaching far beyond what I thought was even intellectually possible.

An American president that claims another as his home country. I didn’t think this would ever happen in my lifetime.

For the record, my grandparents have always referred to Ukraine, often somewhat sarcastically, as the home country. Their parents and grandparents were born there, but they were born in the US.

But we all know this is just more grasping at straws.

To be fair, The President didn't say anything did he?

Have some tea, it will calm your stomach.

you can post it a million times, and yet it will have no effect. He will still be president tomorrow when you wake up. And will have still been born in Hawaii to a father from Kenya and a mother from Kansas.

Please call it what it is, and you know what "r" word I'm thinking. It's too insulting to this country to keep insinuated falsities.

Yes, and Kevin Phillips was there too. He was giving a fisting lesson to children, of course.

Back to the original point of this discussion: Howard Fineman recently said that Obama was "a man of Kenya". I guess he's in on the secret too.
