NPR archive describes Obama as ‘Kenyan-born’ The Story Won’t Go Away!

Perhaps you have grown tired of the issue concerning Obama’s eligibility to be president. National Public Radio, a ‘government’ sponsored group had no trouble determining the truth. If the ‘Air America’ for liberals calls him on it, what are we to believe? Oh yes Air America folded once promises of additional funding from George Soros was withdrawn. Do you suppose NPR the Pravda of America in print would fold if We the People didn’t fund it?

I’m waiting for the day he spends the rest of his life in a hut in Kenya, surrounded by armed guards, while wearing and electronic ankle bracelet to keep him from sliding out of the hut, the same way he slid under the door at 1500 Pennsylvania Ave. Can you even imagine the state secrets he know? Will he share the ones he probably hasn’t already with our enemies? Random thoughts on the passing parade, I’m J.C.

Those crazy “birthers” are citing National Public Radio.

Really? NPR?

Archives for the tax-supported organization reveal that a 2008 report described then-Sen. Barack Obama as “Kenyan-born” and a “son of Africa.”

NPR’s promotion for the story included a brief description of West African correspondent Ofeibea Quist-Arcton, who “describes the stories that have been exciting, including the U.S. presidential race of Kenyan-born Sen. Barack Obama.”

After discussing various issues developing in Africa at the time – such as Kenya’s violent elections, the attacks in Zimbabwe and the presidency of South Africa – the conversation on the program “Tell Me More” turned to Obama.

At about 9:45 of the audio report, interviewer Michelle Martin said “a son of Africa. Barack Obama is poised to at least have the opportunity to become the next president of the United States.” She asked, “How does this campaign look overseas?”

Quist-Arcton responded by describing Obama as a member of the Kenyan Luo tribe and reporting how Africa viewed the race.
