(11,175 posts)Dr. King said "color" but young Barack heard it as "colour" -- the British spelling. Not surprising, given that, on the date of his birth, Kenya was still a British colony.
The only surprising thing is that Orly Taitz hasn't cited this in a brief.

(25,699 posts)I gag a little every time someone surmises that a nonwhite president = racism is dead.
Show me a four-term streak of black presidents, vice presidents, and speakers of the house, and I'll consider it!
