This video contains two Interviews with Sarah Obama (Barack's Kenyan Paternal Grandmother) claiming Barack Obama was born in Kenya.

The first interview was done from her home in Kenya after the third and final presidential debate.  In this clip Bishop McRae questions Sarah Obama about her grandsons supposed birth in Kenya.  Ms. Obama replies that he was indeed born in Kenya and that she was present at the birth.  Ms. Obama's grandson who is translating Bishop McRae's questions vehemently disagrees with Sarah.  Ms. Obama insists throughout the interview he was born in Kenya despite her grandson's protest.  The second interview was done for a profile piece on Barack Obama.  Sarah Obama's statements contradict the vital records produced by the Obama campaign to prove his eligibility for the presidency.
Why
Any Kenyan
Records
There is also speculation that certified copies of a Kenyan birth certificate, with embossed raised seals and with birth witness signatures, are now in the hands of three individuals.  Those documents allegedly state that Obama was born at 7:24 p.m., on August 4, 1961, at Coast Provincial General Hospital, in Mombasa, Kenya. Government authorities in Kenya have stated that all documents regarding Obama would be under seal until after the November 4 election.  That statement itself raises questions, because if Obama was born in Hawaii, Kenya would have no Obama birth records to seal.
It
Is
Well
Known
And then there's the recording of the Kenyan Ambassador admitting Obama was born in Kenya on the "Mike In The Morning" show on WRIF radio, in Detroit.

The radio jocks called the Kenyan Embassy, and spoke to the Kenyan ambassador to the United States, Peter Ogego. Odongo, in this recording, admits that it is a well known fact that Barack Obama was born in Kenya, and plans are underway to build a memorial at the site of his birth.

The ambassador of Kenya says that obama was born in Kenya and that his birth place has become a national shrine.

Listen to the recording here

The quote is around 12:35, so if you don’t have time to listen to the whole thing, you can jump ahead.
The transcript reads:

Radio Jockey: President elect Obama's birth place over in Kenya -- is that going to be a national spot where he was born

Ambassador Peter Ogego: its already an attraction.  His paternal grandmother is still alive

Radio Jockey:But his birth place...they'll put up a marker there

Ambassdor Peter Ogego: It would depend on the government.  Its already well known.

Here is an abridged YouTube version of the the radio interview.  So you can hear just the relevant parts.

It can be reasonably pointed out that the DJ was trying to entrap the Ambassador and that the Ambassador fell into his trap. However, if you listen to the long version of the radio interview --you’ll notice he used the same strategy on two different occasions and the ambassador gently brushed him off.

First, he tried to force the ambassador to sing the Kenyan national anthem. The ambassador referred him to the kenyan website.

Second he tried to push the ambassador into saying something about maybe Kenya becoming the 51st state. Again the ambassador said that Kenya was a sovereign country. ie No.

He used the same technique on the question of Obama’s birth place. This time the ambassador did not brush him off. Rather in answer to the question as to whether Obama was born in Kenya --he says "It is well known."

Because the ambassador answered no in the two previous examples -- you can't say that the ambassdor was either a fool or ill advised.

Finally, you might ask well doesn't he know that saying Obama is born in Kenya would make trouble for Obama? The answer there is why should he be concerned? He has heard no suggestion in the mainstream media that there might be a problem there. So to say what is already well known--as he says--would be no problem.

Here is a utube video of Ambassador Peter Ogego speaking at a conference. Ambassador of Kenya H.E. Peter Ogego To verify that the voice on the radio is Ambassador Ogego-- compare the radio voice with the DJ to the voice on the Utube that goes with Ambassador Ogego. Ambassador Peter Ogego is introduced a bit after minute 18..

They are the same.

The entire phone call can be heard here:
Son Of The Soil Of This Country Subsequently, the Kenyan ambassador said that he meant Obama's father was born in Kenya.  However, when pressed about Obama's birth place:

"I don't know," he said with a tone of irritation.  "You should ask your government.  I know his father is Kenyan."

However, that's not what the original transcript suggests.  Finally, there is a Affidavit of Bishop Ron McRae which is part of the Berg case.  The Bishop says pretty much the same thing as the Ambassador.

"Additionally, it is common knowledge throughout both the Christian and Muslim communities in Kenya, that contrary to news media propaganda here in the United States, US Senator Barack Obama is a Muslim and not a Christian, and that he was born in Mombasa, Kenya and not in the State of Hawaii as falsely purported by the Obama campaign for presidency of the United States."

While you cannot impeach the ambassador's character, you can impeach McCrae's character. After all, he's just an itinerant preacher. But McCrae has been to Kenya. Still that makes two people who say that it is common knowledge in Kenya that Obama was born in Kenya.
Then of course there is a video of Obama's grandmother saying that Obama is born in Kenya
There is a case to be made that Obama mother didn't mean Obama was born in Kenya but rather that he is a "son of this village". However, witnesses insist that she said she was present at obama's birth in Kenya. If taken alone, perhaps she could well be ignored. However, her take is in keeping with others both high and low.

Again here is a pdf transcript of Kenyan National Assembly on Nov 5, 2008, the day after Obama was elected. Over and over again there are references to Obama being a "son of the soil" of Kenya and a Kenyan. On page page 3275 there is this passage:

HOUSE SHOULD ADJOURN TO DISCUSS ELECTION OF MR. BARRACK OBAMA

Ms. Odhiambo: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is not on this issue. I stand on a point of order under Standing Order No.20 to seek leave for adjournment of the House to discuss the American presidential election results.

(Applause)

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President-elect, Mr. Obama, is a son of the soil of this country. Every other country in this continent is celebrating the Obama win. It is only proper and fitting that the country which he originates from should show the same excitement, pomp and colour.
The Continent Of His Birth
ModernGhana.com reports:  that Obama is expected to announce a major foreign policy for Africa during his historic two-day visit to Ghana, beginning Friday, July 10, 2009.

Although Mr Obama has made foreign policy pronouncements for some parts of the world since assuming office in January, this year, he is yet to make one for Africa, and his visit to the country, which the White House describes as "one of our most trusted partners in sub-Saharan Africa", is expected to be used as a platform to unveil his foreign policy for Africa.

"It is expected that President Obama will make a major foreign policy statement on Africa," Ghana’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Alhaji Mohammed Mumuni, told the Daily Graphic.

For Ghana, Obama's visit will be a celebration of another milestone in African history as it hosts the first-ever African-American President on this presidential visit to the continent of his birth.


Did you catch that last part?

"...the continent of his birth."  

 


       
Let's see?  Does this make it three, or is it four, claims, from responsible sources, that Barack Obama was born in Africa.
