I lived in HI more than 13 years and would hear and read in the newspapers etc the word “tutu” referring to grandmothers, aunties and elderly family or neighbor women.
I never heard just “tut” or “toot”.
Then you’ll understand the problem they had with ANNA TOOT being part of the oral history of the kenyan in his home village, the clan members were all illiterate when the kenyan wrote home, only Onyango, who read the koran by the light of a lamp or candle, according to his employer, could read.
The clan recalls the name as Anna Toot according to the article out of Kenya dated 2004, but he might have read out Annie and/or Anna Tutu...and that would make her a LOCAL HAWAIIAN GIRL. Perhaps someone more likely to have started a relationship with a Luo native...rather than the tripe we are fed about the white teenager from Kansas of which there’s no physical evidence of her presence until 1963.
The spell of SAD as mother has been cast and it’s like witchcraft. Few are prepared to let go of it. It’s a trap, it’s like quicksand. It swallows common sense.
Those letters probably still exist somewhere in Kenya, but you’ll never see them, one would show the name of the woman he married and her name ‘they call her Annie Tutu’ for example, and the other would show the date of when he wrote home to tell his father he had a son.
The most interesting features of the letters however would be the photographs of the wife and child he enclosed to show his family. Whoever has those, if they still exist, owns a powerful weapon if they ever chose to use it.
How do you think Mark obtained the photograph of the two little boys, one of whom is obviously a little older and darker than the other, one went to Kenya with his father and the other is your little zero....
So who’s going to be the first to hear a cuckoo in Spring?
He could sing and play the guitar, and any one of those girls could be a japanese student named Ann Obama, or a local lass named Annie Tutu as an endearment.
Africa, India, USA, Asia and Europe makes five. There are seven people, so at least two are locals. Stanley Ann Dunham wasn't invited.
