That’s a very strange article, DL. It’s all about whether or not Obama Sr. made a short, rushed round-trip to Kenya and back to HI ~the time of Obama Jr.’s birth. I agree with the author. Obama Sr. did not make such a trip.

The idea that Stanley Ann would go to Kenya without Obama Sr is a non-starter for me. Obama Sr's father hated the thought that his son was taking up with a white woman. Obama Sr also had to work a summer job just to make ends meet while he was in Hawaii.

I didn't see those details in the article I linked, so I expect that they were in the other article which I have not yet found. The bottom line is Obama Sr didn't have the money to pay for the trip, he didn't even pay for his own airfare to get from Kenya to Hawaii, and it is unlikely that anyone else would have forked out the bucks necessary to allow Stanley Ann to get to Kenya.

This is what I mean by the "logistics don't work." The known timeline of Obama Sr's correspondence, the things he said in his letters, the economics, none of it works when you postulate a trip back to Kenya with Stanley Ann.
