Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate


AP-
Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

The allegations that horrified fellow Republicans and caused his once-promising candidacy to implode in four short days have given Obama a clear lead as Republicans struggled to fetch an alternative.

Ryan’s campaign began to crumble on Monday following the release of embarrassing records from his divorce. In the records, his ex-wife, Boston Public actress Jeri Ryan, said her former husband took her to kinky sex clubs in Paris, New York and New Orleans.



Isn't that strange?

Lets see...

republican caught in some kind of sex scandal (was it at least with an adult female?). - Not surprised about a politician being caught in a sex scandal.

News Media not fact checking, or purposefully misleading a news story with bogus information. - Not surprised about the media mis-reporting anything.

What else is there to the story other than Tom Clancy effing up the political career of Jack Ryan!

To be fair, AP is not only biased but terrible at fact checking.

Absolutely not. If I were married to Jeri Ryan I would take her to as many kinky sex clubs as I could!

So, you're telling me you fall a little short in the 'I know how citizenship works' category, then?

Hint: His mother is from Kansas. She's an American citizen. That makes her child, no matter where he or she may be born, automatically an American citizen, too.

C'mon, this is 6th grade civics class stuff. Surely you already knew this?

According to the law his mother did not reside in the US for a long enough period of time to qualify for what you're referencing. You can't go to France for 5 years and shoot back to the states so your that half french bastard can be born American.

FYI civics boy.
