Every profound lie needs a little truth to hang its hat on. If there had never been a black kenyan student in Hawaii they would have found someone else. He was there at the right time.
If there had never been a girl named Stanley Ann Dunham, some other white girl would have been chosen and paid to take that child to someone like Susan Blake, then fly out to Boston that same day, as Susan said. The purpose was to give the child an ID.

Our purpose is to try and find who his parents were and where he came from. So far, all we do know is that he probably had one white parent and one who was somewhat coloured.

The only way to find the truth - which is what you researchers have done very well - is to not accept anything from Ayers' book, from news articles, press releases or any other material without other corroborating evidence. Starting with a clean sheet of paper, so to speak. So many others start with something on that paper as a given, and that is the fatal mistake, because any new info they find has to be jammed and forced into what they think they "know", or just tossed aside if it doens't "fit".

And of course some of these book writers or others have more nefarious agendas than just clinging to preconceptions. By starting from scratch, then researchers find what parts of the myth are true, and which ones aren't, rather than just accepting parts and having to bend and twist new findings into the existing framework.

You've all done very well, in fact, excellent work. Everyone interested in truth - owes you all big time.

Maraniss writes a book, he gets his stuff from the two characters who run the Seattle Museum of the Mysteries, (big foot, ghosts of the famous departed, UFO’s and homosexual parades and fairy festivals) Sally Jacobs writes a book, she has the unredacted immigration file for the kenyan for two years before the book is published (she knows the maiden name of ANNA and/or Ann S Obama, but she’s not telling) Marable writes a book, he’s been collecting MX history, publications, speeches, film, biographies for ten years (iirc, all housed at Columbia University) he tells of Betty and Malcolm both having affairs, the daughters are furious...and so it goes. One layer of BS upon another, and when someone, anyone, like Marable who just might have known what was what (but he’s dead) tries to suggest that maybe the sky is blue after all, it’s not green as some want us to believe...out come the big guns:

YOU’RE A RACIST!
STANLEY ANN DUNHAM WAS HIS MOTHER!
THE KGB PAID FOR HER TO HAVE THE BABY IN KENYA!

My reply; No I’m not. No she wasn’t. And No again, truth is stranger than any fiction the obstructionists can concoct.
