Apparent fingernails mismatch reveals Barack Obama airport ‘family photos’ are likely digital creations A 1776 Channel investigation has concluded that the airport family gathering portrayed in these images of Barack Obama Sr.’s Honolulu arrival or departure likely never happened. Both airport images appear to have been manufactured, perhaps to propel the official narrative of Barack Obama’s family history as told in his memoir “Dreams from My Father.” Barack Obama Sr. is wearing the same suit and tie in both images, yet has completely different looking left ‘hands’. [...] Full report @ 1776 Channel.

“Your father’s coming to see you,” Ann Dunham told her ten-year-old son Barack Obama, Jr. before a month-long Obama Sr. Christmas visit in 1971, as narrated in Dreams from My Father. Obama Sr.'s Hawaii visit, reportedly part of a "recuperation" after a "bad car accident" in Kenya, included "drives" around "the island," "short walks past" "the remodeled hospital where [Barack Jr.] had been born," and "a talk" to Barack Jr.'s fifth-grade class about "wild animals" that "roamed the plains" of Kenya. And, most importantly, Obama Sr.'s Hawaii visit gave credence that Obama Sr. was, in fact, Barack Jr.'s father. 1....

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...

The Ivy-League educated half-brother of President Obama is publishing his autobiography in which he makes the shocking claim their father dished out alcohol-fueled beatings to him and his mother and in one terrifying instance held a knife to her throat. Mark Obama Ndesandjo, 48, also uses his new book to set the U.S. president straight on inaccuracies he claims exist in his best-selling 1995 memoir Dreams From My Father and confirms they have never seen eye-to-eye because 'Barack thought I was too white and I thought he was too black.' --SNIP-- The 500-page book includes an appendix listing a number...

An exclusive sneak preview of "2016: Obama's America" highlights some of the economic and political philosophies of President Obama's father.

President Obama’s father revealed plans to put him up for adoption in 1961, according to Sally Jacobs, the Boston Globe reporter whose biography on the elder Obama is due out next week. Jacobs wrote in the Globe on Thursday that the possibility was detailed as Obama’s father ran into trouble with immigration officials who thought he might have more than one wife. “Subject got his USC wife ‘Hapai’ [Hawaiian for pregnant] and although they were married they do not live together and Miss Dunham is making arrangements with the Salvation Army to give the baby away,” read a memo written...

I have created a summary (posted below) of Barack Obama Senior's immigration files, which were recently released. The summary is tabular, hopefully allowing a more systematic analysis. I have highlighted in yellow the more interesting portions. This summary is useful as an introductory research tool or a concise summation for semi-interested readers. Details are excluded except where particularly interesting or unobvious. When posting comments about a particular document, please include the page # (first column of table). I welcome questions, too.

The long form birth certificate says obama sr. is 25. His alien registration card at the external link (& shown below) gives his date of birth as 6-18-34. If true, he would have been 27 not 25 when obama jr. was born. Wikipedia lists 1936 as obama sr.'s birth year. If obama sr. falsified his alien registration card, he might have been an illegal alien when obama jr. was conceived and born. On the other hand, the birth certificate might be inaccurate. In any case, one of the two documents contains false information.

I personally knew Obama Sr during his days as a middle level economist in Kenyatta’s Government. Always smartly dressed, Barrack Sr. was the embodiment of success. He came from a poor family near Lake Victoria. Africa’s largest water mass, went to a tin-roofed school with no running water, but still managed to reach the pinnacle of intellectual life at Harvard University in the US, where he received his advanced degree. At the university of Miami at Minoa, he was the first African student to be enrolled there for undergraduate studies, and therefore, became the centre of attraction. Tall and...

The Central Jakarta administration will move the controversial "Little Barry" statue from its current location at Taman Menteng in Central Jakarta to state elementary school SDN 01 Menteng next week, an official says. "We are currently discussing with officials from the school and its alumni association," city spokesman Cucu Ahmad Kurnia told reporters Friday. "We hope the move will happen next week." US President Barack Obama attended the elementary school for almost two years when he spent part of his childhood in Jakarta. Erected by the Jakarta-based Friends of Obama Foundation in December last year, the statue, which resembles Obama...

TEL AVIV – President Barack Obama's father was abusive and hit at least one of his American wives, Obama's half-brother disclosed at a press conference in China today. The relationship that Barack Obama Sr. had with his third wife might shed some light into the mysterious relationship between Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, and Barack Obama Sr. It also may provide some background into why Dunham sought a divorce from Obama Sr., although there is actually no record of their marriage. Mark Okoth Obama Ndesandjo – who had the same, late, father as the U.S. president – spoke to reporters as...
