Barack Obama had a slip of the tongue in Kogelo, Kenya this past weekend.

During a speech Obama told the African audience he was from Kenya,

“Now three years ago I visited Kenya as the first sitting American president to come from Kenya.”

Oops.

It’s not the first time Obama made this mistake.
In an earlier bio Obama wrote that he was from Kenya.
