What did Arpaio investigate about former President Barack Obama?
His residency
His net worth
His birth certificate
His educational background
Answer
The investigation centered around the claim that former President Barack Obama was not a natural-born citizen of the United States, thus ineligible for the presidency. This claim, often referred to as "birtherism," alleged that Obama was not born in the United States but rather in Kenya. The investigation, initiated by then-Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, ultimately found no evidence to support this claim, and Obama's citizenship was confirmed.
