Tanzanian newspaper reports that Obama was born in East Africa!
DODOMA, Tanzania - July 13, 2010 - An online newspaper based in Tanzania is reporting that “Barack Abdallah Husein Obama,” the “first black U.S. president,” was born outside of the United States.
Written in broken English, the article notes that the President of the United States has historically been required to be born on U.S. soil but that “This might have been the result of racism or a belief that a person other than an original U.S. citizen was capable of effectively leading the powerful nation and helping it to maintain its values.”
The writers go on to say, “We witnessed last year a senator with his origins from east Africa, Barack Abdallah Husein Obama, becoming the first (illegitimate) black U.S. president. He won the race on (the) Democrat ticket and was sworn (in) on January 20, 2009 as U.S. president.”
The article then compares the events of the 2008 U.S. presidential election to the upcoming election to be held in Tanzania later this year in which a candidate from “Pemba” could win.
The publication contains other articles mentioning Obama, one of which was covered at the G20 summit in Toronto and was dated June 28, 2010.
The authors state that Zanzibar, which consists of two islands, Pemba and Unguja, has never elected a president from the island of Pemba. The two islands of Zanzibar located in the Indian Ocean are part of Tanzania in East Africa, with the country of Kenya just north of Tanzania.
Members of the Kenyan Parliament have stated that Obama was born in Kenya. A map of the region shows the close proximity of Pemba Island, Kenya and Tanzania.
