Barack Obama's Slave Ancestry Discovered By Researchers

[Quantum Windbag]

President Obama's ancestry has always been a hot topic. Between the birther debates that the Supreme Court dismissed last month to the country's differing opinions about his race, the commander-in-chief's biological roots have long been a hot-button issue.

But the most recent discovery into the president's complicated genealogy will likely fuel even more chatter.

According to the New York Times, a team of genealogists have discovered the president's slave ancestry.

As the son of a Kenyan father and white American mother, Obama is an African-American in the most literal sense. But until now Obama's African American cred in a more contemporary sense had been a source of debate, since unlike most American blacks he was not thought to have descend directly from enslaved Africans.

However, the researchers say that not only did the president descend from an enslaved African, his ancestor was likely the first ever documented black slave in America. Furthermore, Obama's slave heritage unfurls from perhaps the most unlikely familial line: his white mother.

And they may also share a common black ancestor from the 1600s.

And that right there is enough, i.e. dual citizenship, to constitutionally impeach the kenyan and throw his ass in prison to rot, which is what I believe someday will happen, unless he flees the country or is pardoned by a later president.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Obama's family owned slaves? Is that right?

So he just Coincidentally is not only Descended from Slaves, but "from the first black slave ever Documented to have been Brought here" ?

Horse shit.

This is some Real Cult of Personality BS if you ask me. I never thought I would see the Day that Americans would worship a President like some Old world Monarch who claims to be Gods Emissary.

Pathetic.

Obama is truly the chosen one. He was groomed and the way was prepared for him for 11 generations. He is the symbol of our hope for the future and our transcendence of the past. If you don't believe this you are denying God's will for America and are condemning yourself to the depths of hell and bitterness.

The strange thing about this story is Ancestor.com is flat out admitting they don't know what the are claiming, yet everyone is acting like that they said is true.

I appreciate the moving mod leaving a trail on the Politics board.

They should have put it in the Romper Room.

Shameless Liberal Media Promote Unproven Claim: 'Obama Related to America's First Slave'​

By Tim Graham | July 31, 2012


The website Ancestry.com is trying to build an appealing Obama tale...and promote business to its website, and The Washington Post and other pro-Obama media are biting like hungry fish. Washington Post reporter Krissah Thompson was thrilled: "President Obama’s extraordinary family story gained a new layer this week as a team of genealogists found evidence that he is most likely a descendant of one of the first documented African slaves in this country."

Underline "most likely." They didn't find actual proof. "The company says it can't establish a definitive link because of gaps in family history....The Ancestry.com findings make for a tantalizing tale that wasn't uncommon in early colonial Virginia, and the team probably got it right, [Elizabeth Shown] Mills said. 'They did the best job possible,' said Mills, who reviewed the findings at Ancestry.com's request." But tantalized pro-Obama media often skipped over the "didn't prove it" part:

Don't make fun of Barack. His is a truly noble heritage. He has been prepared for his role from the beginning.

He is descended from the firstborn of Eve from her marriage to the Piltdown man.
