President Gingrich?

Forget the fact that Newt Gingrich poses himself as a moral candidate despite his numerous wives and affairs. There's a better reason he shouldn't be president.

Gingrich claimed that President Obama has "a Kenyan, anti-colonial worldview."

President Obama wasn't born in Kenya. He was born in Hawaii, according to his birth certificate. Gingrich knows this, but his comment is a not-so-subtle nod to the Birthers, people who think Obama wasn't born in America.

Obama was born on August 4, 1961. Kenya gained its independence on December 12, 1963. Even if Obama was born in Kenya, (which he wasn't!) he would've had to develop "a Kenyan anti-colonial worldview" at a very early year. He would've been the most prolific anti-colonial toddler in Kenya.

Furthermore, what is "a Kenyan, anti-colonial worldview"? Would Gingrich prefer Obama to favor colonialism in Kenya? I thought the debate over whether or not Kenya should be independent was solved several decades ago.

It's a cynical group of words that in reality doesn't say much, but the meaning to an ignorant ear is to portray Obama as un-American, socialist, and radical. The worst part of it is Gingrich knows better. He has a PhD in history and has taught at the college level. He knows exactly what he's saying and the meaning he intends to convey. And that knowing disingenuousness should disqualify him from the presidency.
