\"Arnold<\/a>Carl Tapp (also known as Makahayan<\/em> and American Advocate<\/em>) made initial contact with me during the summer of 2009.<\/p>\n

He contacted me through his youtube account (youtube.com\/MAKAHAYAN<\/span><\/a>) and stated that he’d seen the eBay auction for Barack Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate and also read news accounts published at World Net Daily<\/em>\u00a0(WND.com) regarding the eBay auction.<\/p>\n

Back at that time I hadn’t published any youtube videos at all but I used my youtube account (youtube.com\/InspectorSmith<\/span><\/a>) for communication and I’d made promises that I would soon publish a video(s) displaying Barack Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate.<\/p>\n

Listed and linked directly below are a number of the first articles published at World Net Daily<\/em> regarding the eBay auction for Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate:<\/p>\n

August 22, 2009<\/strong> by Drew Zahn<\/em>: eBay seller releases video of ‘Obama birth certificate’ – Elusive Lucas Smith films alleged Kenyan document<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

As far as I can remember those are all of the articles which\u00a0World Net Daily<\/em> (WND.com) published up until, and upon, the publication of the first youtube video at the InspectorSmith <\/em>youtube channel.<\/p>\n

Carl Tapp<\/strong> was a supporter before the publication of the first youtube video. \u00a0I specifically remember receiving youtube messages from him prior to publishing any videos because he talked about how and why that I should not allow others to rush me into, of force me into, publishing a video\u00a0until I felt that the appropriate time had arrived.<\/p>\n

Carl will be greatly missed here at the Was Obama Born in Kenya blog <\/strong>. \u00a0I’ve known about Carl’s death now for a couple of weeks. \u00a0On the 13th of this month (January 2016) I started writing this report regarding his passing. \u00a0I felt sad and somewhat lost. \u00a0Carl’s passing made me realize that someday death is coming for all of us. \u00a0Up until this point I sort of assumed that I was going to live forever.<\/p>\n

Over the course of the last couple of weeks I’ve tried to complete the writing of this report but\u00a0there was some sort of block that I was experiencing my head.<\/p>\n

I tried writing other things for an entirely unrelated project that I was working on and I had limited success with that and was\u00a0able to write a couple reports (totally unrelated to the WOBIK blog). \u00a0I even filmed a short a video. \u00a0However, whatever I did it seemed that I couldn’t get anything out of mind and into this report here regarding the passing of my friend Carl Arnold Tapp.<\/p>\n

Earlier tonight (or perhaps last night because as of right this moment it’s well passed midnight) I discussed Carl’s death with a friend of mine. \u00a0After the discussion I knew that it was time for me to finish this report regarding Carl’s passing.<\/p>\n

Throughout the several years that I known Carl I began to sense that he and I likely had vastly different opinions regarding many subjects including some political beliefs. However, I’m a firm believer that\u00a0friends don’t need to share all of the same beliefs.<\/p>\n

Moreover, after some thought I realized that Carl and I did have a number of things in common and not just the fact that we both believe that Barack Obama was born in Mombasa, Kenya and the he is ineligible to be President of the United States.<\/p>\n

I believe that Carl and I also had the following common:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0 Although we were both proud to be Americans we both married foreign-born women.<\/strong> \u00a0(NOTE: I believe that the name of Carl’s wife is\u00a0Mariana Tapp<\/em> and even though it appears that they may been separated (?) before his passing she did state in his obituary that, “I will always love you.<\/em>“<\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0 We both enjoyed fishing<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. \u00a0 We’ve both lived in Florida<\/strong> (at different times)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Carl’s full name was Arnold Carl Tapp<\/em> and some other interesting information regarding this American patriot is provided below:<\/p>\n

    a<\/strong><\/em>. \u00a0Carl was a veteran and served four (4) years in the U.S. Air Force. \u00a0His rank is listed as Airman First Class.<\/p>\n

    b<\/em><\/strong>. \u00a0Carl was 80 years of age at the time of his death but at age 79 he was still both willing and eager to work. \u00a0He was seeking employment and listed the following online<\/span><\/a> in his search for a job (he also included the attached picture of himself):<\/p>\n

I could also do editing , proof reading and correction of articles , letters , publications , etc .\u00a0Please contact me and try to help me work and pay my own way . THANK YOU .<\/em><\/p>\n

    Arnold Carl Tapp was born on September 18, 1935<\/strong> and he left us on January 2, 2016<\/strong>. His funeral service was held at the\u00a0Serenity\u00a0Funeral Home, 5229 Coconut Creek Pkwy, Margate, Florida 33063.<\/p>\n

    Our friend and compatriot Bruce Steadman recently stated the following regarding Carl:<\/p>\n

    He was a GREAT, LOYAL AND UNWAVERING FRIEND TO WOBIK SINCE THE VERY BEGINNING.<\/em><\/p>\n

    I couldn’t agree with you more, Bruce. \u00a0Carl will be greatly missed here at the Was Obama Born In Kenya blog<\/strong> and the InspectorSmith Forum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
