The Marriage of Obama's Parents: 'In Name Only'?
American Thinker ^ | March 8, 2014 | Shawn Glasco

Posted on 03/08/2014 6:07:03 AM PST by Flotsam_Jetsome

So when did Ann's and Obama Sr.'s "whatever happened happened fast" wedding happen? For no apparent reason, confusion abounds among Obama's biographers over the wedding date:

1. Dreams claims that Ann and Obama Sr. were in married "in 1960"; similarly, Mendell's 2007 book claims that the couple were married "sometime in late 1960" when they "slipped off alone to the island of Maui"; and both Obamaland (2008) by Ron Jacobs (with contributor David Maraniss) and a 2007 Washington Post article claim that the two were married "late in 1960."

2. A 2007 Chicago Tribune article vaguely claims that Ann and Obama Sr. were married "six months before" Barack's birth on Aug 4, 1961 -- or, in other words, sometime in early 1961.

3. An April 2008 Time article by Amanda Ripley, as does Maraniss's August 2008 article, gives a specific date of February 2, 1961 for the wedding, apparently based on Ann's and Obama Sr.'s 1964 divorce records – mysteriously appearing on the web. But since fake documents have been known to appear on the web, Obama's biographers, Ripley and Maraniss, might want to verify the 1964 divorce documents – especially since a Feb. 2, 1961 marriage date for "Ann and Obama Sr." wasn't reported in any Honolulu Advertiser or Honolulu Star-Bulletin marriage lists from February 1961. Take the February 8, 1961 Star-Bulletin, which listed eighteen marriages from Feb. 3, Feb. 4, and Feb. 6, and no Feb. 2 marriages, and the February 7, 1961 Advertiser, which listed eleven marriages from Feb. 2 to 4, including two Feb. 2 marriages.

Hmm, I only go on your comments. And dissing honest and excellent researchers says something.

I agree... especially if the brain surgeon purposely killed the patient!

Zero is merely doing what he was tasked with, to destroy the USA. It’s not weakness or naivete or incompetence; it’s a plan.

There we part company. I haven’t yet seen any convincing evidence of criminal identity fraud


Using forged documents is not criminal?

Nor have I yet seen evidence that would justify an objective conclusion that he is “very likely not a natural born citizen”. Courts have concluded that he is.


No they have not. “No standing” or other picayune technical reasons.

Hey Red Steel - I think there’s a retread on this thread.

Birds of a feather flock together. A lot of wealth, too, such as Bill Ayers’ family. All dedicated to communism.

Good chance of it was a zot. If you can ID its former screen name even better like my tag line says.

I’m not as on top of things as you are; but I’d say a Fogblower type. Pretending to be “concerned” and then putting “birtherism” in the same category as 9/11 truthers and faked moon landings is revealing. Also calling Zero “ineffective”.

Kind of like someone upthread who said he watched Zero’s speech at the Dem convnention when he talked about his father being a Kenyan goat herder - and liked the speech!

Ann Dunham’s US State Department passport file as released per FOIA contains paperwork saying her son Barack is now an Indonesian citizen in no need of an American passport.

Makes no difference. Born a U.S. citizen (if he was, of course), you retain U.S. citizenship until you denounce it upon achieving your majority. The State Dept response is correct, under the situation -- if he has an Indonesian passport, he doesn't need an American passport.

I am speaking with full knowledge of the American citizenship laws then prevailing (8 hours of International Law, prepping for the Foreign Service).

WHY CHICAGO? THE HOME OF MARXISM-LENINISM IN THE US.

Crossposting fyi:

DISCOVER THE NETWORKS
EXCERPT:

...Axelrod graduated from New York’s Stuyvesant High School in June 1972 and enrolled, that fall, at the University of Chicago, where he majored in political science and wrote for the student newspaper. In late 1973 or early 1974, he secured a job as a political columnist for the Hyde Park Herald, a local weekly newspaper. His work at the Herald caught the attention of two particularly noteworthy individuals, David Canter and Don Rose:

David Canter (1923-2004) was the son of Harry Jacob Canter, a lifelong communist who: served as secretary of the Boston Communist Party; ran for governor of Massachusetts on the Communist Party ticket in 1930; earned a special invitation to Joseph Stalin’s USSR in 1932; worked in Moscow as an official translator of Lenin’s writings; and later taught at the Abraham Lincoln School, an infamous Chicago-based front that indoctrinated students in the teachings of Marx and Lenin. Like his father, David Canter was also a lifelong communist. He was educated in Stalin’s Soviet Union from 1932-37, before returning with his family to the United States. He later became an attorney and developed ties to the National Lawyers Guild. In the Guide to Subversive Organizations and Publications, an exhaustive Congressional analysis compiled between 1955 and 1968, Canter’s name appeared 25 times. On July 12, 1962, Canter was subpoenaed to testify before the House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC), where he was questioned about the agendas of Translation World Publishers, the pro-Soviet, Soviet-subsidized publishing house he had co-created with LeRoy Wolins, a well-known communist. Canter refused to answer any HUAC questions about his past or present membership in the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). Canter’s associate, Don Rose (who is still alive), was never proven to be a CPUSA member. He was, however, a member of the National Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam, an organization replete with communists and Sixties radicals. He also belonged to the Alliance to End Repression (a suspected Communist Party front), and he did some press work for the Students for a Democratic Society. In the 1960s, Rose and Canter collaborated to establish a far-left, pro-communist community newspaper called Hyde Park-Kenwood Voices, which echoed CPUSA propaganda. Soon after meeting Axelrod, Canter and Rose became mentors to the young man and helped shape his political development.


And during this time, from just after WW2 until he retired in the mid 90’s, Charles T Payne, the brother of Madelyn Dunham was Deputy Director of the Library at the University of Chicago and lived in Hyde Park.

In the seventies, his wife Melanie was on a committee with the wife of David Axelrod.

FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS
Active in all arenas of Chicago’s bourgeoning Black cultural scene, Davis was one of the founding members of the late-1930s South Side Writers’ Group associated with Richard Wright, as well as a prominent participant in events organized by the South Side Community Art Center and the Abraham Lincoln School throughout the 1940s. Davis frequently gave public lectures on subjects ranging from the political and social status of African Americans to the history of jazz[2].


And Richard Wright accompanied MalcolmX to the Bandung Conference in 1955, hosted by Sukarno, in Jakarta, Indonesia.

SOURCE - frontpagemagazine blog comments:

It’s not surprising Marx wrote about the exploitation of working people. He was intimately familiar with exploitation of working people, since he personally exploited everyone around him his entire life. He was a broke loser who sponged off everyone around him, borrowed money and never paid it back, and believed it was the obligation of his family and friends to support him in his “great work” so that he wouldn’t have to earn a living. Stephan Molyneux paints a chilling portrait of the monster that Marx was in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yA2lCBJu2Gg
That the ideas of Marx would be popular among other people who share his belief that the world owes them something is not surprising.


Video is a must-see

What was it about Chicago, originally, that lured all these radical leftists there? I mean I know the city was basically run by the Mob forever, but that doesn’t seem to explain it.

It mostly has to do with Chicago being the largest industrial city in America--the capital of the Rust Belt--with a history of labor radicalism that goes back to the 1870s.

Thanks for the kind words - but it’s not worth the aggro to reply to the ridiculous accusations, probably just born out of fear of the unknown. Let the information stand by itself, most freepers are savvy enough to make up their own minds without resorting to insult.

You think a person can’t be born with more than one citizenship?

It’s all water off a duck’s back as far as I’m concerned, all you are saying is that images that show resemblances don’t prove anything, and I agree with you.
Yet images must have influenced you to be so convinced the two of them are brothers.
So while you deny their usefulness, you are beholden to their use.
Unless of course you’ve met both of the men privately together.
Then photographs would be secondary.

I'm sorry, I really can't decipher what you mean by:

The too left small photo in your compilation cannot be zerObama. The ears are totally different than in the other users, most noticeably the right ear. The other pics, however, all appear to be authentically zerO.

So maybe you can tell me which one of the little boys below is or isn't zero?

I posted the law at the time. And this notion that the 14th article gives US Citizenship by jus soli alone is just that, a notion. The fact that he is a British Citizen whether he has any other citizenship or not means he is ineligible.

the composite I posted on the above thread appears to have been removed, the image-saving site I use has done this before, it’s interesting they would do this.
