'Courtesy Mark Obama N'...it's been cropped.
I think it’s all gone way beyond the rules. There are contributors to this thread who are simply driven by the emotion of hatred for something they have failed to understand. It’s not rational.
One thing I would like to correct. When I described the family group image as ‘copyrighted’ I should have written ‘supplied courtesy of’ - which is how it appears on The Obama File. I have no idea who removed that information. Some copies have that, others don’t.
The fact is, we know that Mark did not take those photos when he was a child, so in turn he could not have copyrighted them. I doubt that a Kenyan photographer would have gone to the trouble of copyrighting these photos some 40 years ago, unless he actually had some personal knowledge that they might be photos of a future US president. Now that is some wild theory. ;-)
