Obama said that his great uncle was liberating Auschwitz... and it was a blunder of course since Auschwitz was liberated by Soviets since it was in Poland.
So, Poland was again mentioned as a controversy in this presidential election.

I tried to post it - I do not know how many times but my connection is on and off, very frustrating.

Jaga,
Obama was probably mentioning the wrong camp, and I think that his uncle liberated another
camp; Dachau, Buchenwald or Mauthausen were the camps that were liberated by the Americans.
An uneasy mistake, not so smart for an intelligent guy like him. (And I am a Obama supporter)

Pieter,
Obama is a new generation who does not remember a war. His great uncle saw Buchenwald. This was another famous camp, but in Germany.
