I think a lot more Obama "Buyers Remorse" is coming. People are finding he is not what they thought he was. He only cares about himself. What did he ever do for the real Obama family? Use them to give credence to his claims of African Heritage? Look at comparison photos of Barry and a man name Muhammed Sabuh. They are like twins. Sabuh was the founder and leader of a little cult called SUBUD. Barry's mother was a member and so was Loretta Fuddy - the Hawaiian Official who certified Barry's Hawaiian birth certificate. SUBUD originated in Indonesia and has it's U.S. Headquarters in Chicago. That sure is a lot of "coincidences" huh? There are millions of dark skinned people around the world who are not African.
Make Obummer sell one of his mansions to pay his own people that did the work. What a jerk as always.
