What the media aren't saying about Obama Sr.

What the media aren't saying about Obama Sr.: "The media have taken some notice of Barack Obama Sr.'s immigration documents secured through the Freedom of Information Act by Heather Smathers, a young reporter for a start-up weekly, The Arizona Independent.

Most mainstream reports focus on Obama's Harvard years – overlooking a key scandal therein – and fully ignore the impact of these documents on the official Obama birth narrative.

The Associated Press headline is typical: 'Files suggest elder Obama forced to leave Harvard.' The AP, like the other media, cites concerns 'about his personal life and finances.'

This is true enough, but only the British press has addressed the most scandalous allegation. Although key words were redacted in the file, the redactions do not hide the obvious.

A March 1964 document suggests that Obama impregnated a Kenyan high-school student who was in Massachusetts on an exchange program. When the girl left inexplicably for London, immigration officials paid heed.

'The suspicion exists,' a March 1964 INS document said, 'that she may have gone to London for [redacted].' The girl cited a visit to her sister, but upon checking, officials discovered she had no sister in London."
