Nice try though.
Open to interruption... "homeland" has more than one meaning... take your pick...
A homeland (rel. country of origin and native land) is the concept of the place (cultural geography) to which an ethnic group holds a long history and a deep cultural association with —the country in which a particular national identity began. As a common noun, it simply connotes the country of one's origin.
[/b][/i] When used as a proper noun, the word, as well as its cognates in other languages (i.e. Heimatland in German) often have ethnic nationalist connotations. A homeland may also be referred to as a fatherland, a motherland, or a mother country, depending on the culture and language of the nationality in question.

I don't know. Her context is open to debate. That's my honest answer.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I know where he was born... HI. But at the same time I think Obama was pandering to the multi-cultural multi-racial affirmative action mentality of the left (ala Elizabeth Warren "I'm 1/32 Cherokee") and he created or allowed others to weave a colorful and interesting backstory for him. In short he lied and went along with others lying for him
And that's an opinion that I have stated numerous times on this thread... which you nor any other liberal has attempted to debate on the thread. And debate is not trashy one-liners. What's your opinion about all these "mistakes" that have been made over the years... one mistake (his literary bio) that existed for 16 years, through 3 versions, on a website and not changed until he was running for president. Archer insight?
It's almost impossible to sort out what is actually out there in the public domain and what the Right claims is out there complete with doctored articles and spurious proof. How is Obama pandering to the multi cultural multi racial affirmative action mentality when he IS multi racial and IS multi cultural. You would be bitching even more if he avoided mentioning he cultural background and racial heritage. You are never going to be happy with anything he says or does.

Congratulations J, you have succeeded on reaching a new personal low.
Thank you, I will take that as a compliment. If the hood fits.
Would you take this Kenya stuff seriously if it was Germany? or France? or even Mexico?
What the f*** are you talking about. This has been my only comment on this thread:

I was around 20 years ago and paying attention. You are a liar. (just practicing my JMC shtick) but seriously are you stupid or do you just think that everyone reading this thread was born yesterday?
That makes me a partial racist? Stick it.
Crap, got this: "You cannot add administrators and moderators to your foes list."
Sorry NC, I will ask the powers to take me off whatever, so you can foe me. Your loss. For the record I have no idea if you hate Obama over his race. Just a guess.
I do not moderate or administer, I only activate new users.
