Beckwith argues that this procedure (ther adoption) is why BHO came back to HI in 1971, if I’m understanding correctly. Beckwith, correct me if I don’t have that right.
I wouldn’t describe my theory as an argument, but rather a “best guess” as to why Barak Obama showed up in Hawaii in December, 1971.
The fact is we don’t KNOW anything about Barack Obama until 1971, and we DON’T KNOW very much about Obama since then.
By the way, don’t you think if Obama’s COLB were genuine, the State of Hawaii would have spelled Obama’s alleged father’s name correctly?
The constant misspellings are another strange thing.
I e-mailed OIP Director Takase once to ask what exact name the HDOH is referring to when they say “President Obama”, explaining how misspellings and alternate name and initial combinations have obscured the existence of certain records. I got back a lecture about how “President” is an honorary title, blah, blah, blah.
Obfuscation.
I sent the HDOH a request for a listing of any index data they have for Obama, Dunham, Soetoro, Sutoro, etc. They implied that they can only search for one unique name and one unique vital event at a time so they wanted me to list all the combinations, which I did. I said I couldn’t imagine them not having the ability to do a string search, like Google.
Shortly after that they changed their web page to say that it would be $7.50 for every individual search they do - full name and vital event.
I typed out a word and then decided to delete it. I need to watch my mouth.
When I called them on the illegality of their charging for index records without going through the full rule-changing procedure as required by law, they tried for a while to argue with me and then the Ombudsman’s Office apparently got ahold of them and told them they couldn’t do that. So now they require snail mail instead and say they MIGHT charge a fee. And they mysteriously “didn’t receive” requests unless you send it with delivery confirmation.
Sandbagging and gaslighting.
So I never did get my answer regarding what records they have for somebody with a last name of Soetoro or Sutoro.
