I'm just dropping this in here for future reference as Kathrine (sp)Dunham is referenced in this article about Haiti.I've only quickly looked at wiki.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Time put him on the cover in October 2006, with a very positive cover story by Joe Klein. There was some less favorable coverage. The liberal writer Ezra Klein called him a leader whos never led in the Los Angeles Times.
Some partisan Democrats criticized him for not taking up major issues; some Republicans complained that he had little experience. Some blacks complained that he was not really black, and he is not, like most American blacks, the descendant of American slaves and he grew up not in a black ghetto but in the nations most multiracial state.
Nonetheless in January 2006 Obama told Tim Russert on Meet the Press that, I will serve out my full six-year term and I will not run for president or vice president in 2008.
But in 2005 he hired Anita Dunn, one of Bill Bradleys top staffers in his 2000 presidential campaign, and he spoke at Iowa Senator Tom Harkins annual steak fry in September 2006.
That same month, as he was campaigning for Democrats around the country, his 2004 primary opponent Dan Hynes wrote him an open letter urging him to run.
On Oct. 22, Obama appeared again on Meet the Press and told Russert that he had thought about the possibility of running for president.
In December 2006 he went, for the first time in his life, to New Hampshire, where he spoke to crowds of thousands. In January 2007 he announced he was setting up an exploratory committee, and in February he went to Springfield and announced he was indeed running.

Obama and U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar (R-IN) visit a Russian mobile launch missile dismantling facility in August 2005. (Passports of the American party were temporarily seized by the Russians.)
Lugar has always been very nice to him, hasn’t he.
I didn’t know where he found Anita Dunn. Now I do!!!
Yep ...
but he also proves my theory about
the loss of testosterone/male spine
in SOME aging men .. LOL.
She helped to pioneer microcredit programs that made small amounts of capital available to weavers, blacksmiths and other low-income groups people who would otherwise have had no access to credit.
Ann helped the little guy to increase business. Something that Barry could well learn from. She more or less concluded that the poorer people were such because of a lack of capital not because they were not otherwise capable and that moneys should not be funneled through the village leaders because they used it to increase their own positions but capital should be spread out to the average little guy.
As she wrote in her dissertation, many government programs inadvertently foster stratification by channeling resources through village officials, who then used the money to further strengthen their own status.
It seems that Barry is doing the opposite. He is giving the biggest companies bail outs as they give themselves huge bonuses at the expense of the shareholders and workers. Barry also funnels funds through state and local governments. He hasn't done anything to help the average person create businesses and maintain businesses which is the backbone of society. Barry could learn a lot from his mother.

D.C. Tech Official Is Accused of Bribery(Birth Certificate Forgery)
A D.C. government official and a business executive were arrested yesterday on bribery
charges involving city technology contracts that included "ghost" workers and
kickbacks, federal authorities said. Until recently, the technology office was headed
by Vivek Kundra, who has taken a job as President Obama's chief information officer.
A White House official confirmed last night that Kundra has taken a leave of absence.
Yusuf Acar, 40, who has worked in the technology office since 2004, was charged with
bribery, conspiracy, money laundering and conflict of interest.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Hibarger told a federal judge that Acar is a flight risk because agents
seized $70,000 in cash in his house and because in recorded conversations, he boasted that he could easily flee to his native Turkey.
Acar also told the informant that he could use
computers to create fake D.C. birth certificates, Hibarger said.
I have no clue on their photo archive operation,
or the investigations, but I put nothing past
them.
Correct ... says she was the kindnest, most
generous and what’s best in him he owes to her
... yet, he’s setting about to virtually destroy
the small businessman and our capitalist
system .. her very life’s work. Some tribute,
huh ?

Oops! Obama tells another nativity fib?
Oops! Obama tells another nativity fib?
Records indicate father not part of Kenyan airlift, as prez
said Official documents catch Barack Obama in another
apparent misrepresentation of his life story, this time
challenging a claim made during his campaign that his
father was part of a JFK-era airlift to bring Kenyan
students to the U.S. to study in American universities.
WND research indicates Barack Obama Sr. was not brought to Hawaii in 1959 by any airlift of Kenyan students organized by baseball great Jackie Robinson, John F. Kennedy or the African-American Students Foundation, the AASF.
Nor was Barack Obama Sr. on any of the three subsequently chartered airplanes in what became known as the “second airlift” organized by Kenyan Luo politician Tom Mboya in 1960 after the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Foundation contributed
$100,000 to AASF.
Moreover, after a thorough search of the Jackie Robinson papers at the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress, WND can find no mention of Barack Obama Sr. in the files on deposit, either as an applicant or candidate
for an airlift from Kenya to study in the U.S.
The manifest of the 81 students actually flown from Kenya Sept. 9, 1959, in a plane chartered by Jackie Robinson in conjunction with the AASF does not contain Barack Obama Sr.\’s name. Robinson was assisted by singer Harry
Belafonte and actor Sidney Poitier.
By the time of the Sept. 9, 1959, airlift to New York City, Barack Obama Sr. was already in Honolulu, enrolled in classes as an undergraduate at the University of Hawaii.
WND previously published official affirmation from the University of Hawaii that Barack Obama Sr. was enrolled for the 1959 fall term.
The first article documenting Barack Obama Sr.’s presence in Hawaii was by journalist Shurei Hirozawa in the Honolulu Star Bulletin on Sept. 18, 1959, only nine days after the Jackie Robinson airlift. The article suggested Barack Obama Sr., then fully settled in Hawaii and enrolled at the
university, had used personal savings to pay his travel
expenses from Kenya to Hawaii and tuition costs at the
university.
“But the money [Barack Obama Sr.] saved will only stretch out for two semesters or less because of the high cost of living in Hawaii, he found out,” wrote Hirozawa. “He’ll work, he says, and possibly apply for a scholarship.”
Obama claims JFK responsible
Barack Obama Jr.’s claim that John F. Kennedy brought his father to the U.S. was made in a March 4, 2007, from the pulpit of the historic Brown Chapel A.M.E. Church in Selma, Ala.
Obama declared he owed his very existence to Selma, according to a transcript of the speech and a video clip posted on YouTube.com. A few minutes into the speech, Obama began discussing the protests in Selma and Birmingham, Ala., that were instrumental to Martin Luther King building the civil rights movement in the 1960s.
Obama invented dialogue of Kennedy advisers, musing, “It worried the folks in the White House who said, ‘You know, we’re battling communism. How are we going to win hearts and minds all across the world if right here in our own country, John, we’re not observing the ideals set forth in our Constitution? We might be accused of being hypocrites.”
Obama continued: “This young man named Barack Obama got one of those tickets and came over to this country. He met this woman whose great-great-great-great-grandfather had owned slaves. But she had a good idea there was some craziness going on, because they looked at each other, and they
decided that we know that (in) the world as it has been it might not be possible for us to get together and have a child.”
Kennedy, however, was not in the White House until Jan. 20, 1961, and he did not participate in the organization of the September 1959 airlift.
The historical record is further established by a background memorandum prepared by Sen. John Kennedy’s office in August 1960, while JFK was running
for president.
The memo documents that JFK met with Mboya but after the 1959 airlift had already occurred. Mboya met with JFK at Hyannis Port July 26, 1960, while Kennedy was running for president. Mboya’s goal was to convince JFK to fund a second airlift of African students to the U.S.
The memo further documents that the State Department, despite intervention by Vice President Richard Nixon, had already turned down Mboya’s request for a second airlift to bring in 200 African students who had received scholarships
from U.S. schools.
The Kennedy family, utilizing the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Foundation, decided to give Mboya a $100,000 donation to pay for the second airlift, in memory of JFK’s brother who was killed in World War II.
Knowing the Kennedy family was going to pay for the second airlift, Nixon prevailed on the State Department to reverse its earlier negative decision. The African-American Students Foundation, however, decided to accept the
Kennedy Foundation’s offer, preferring the willing generosity of the privately offered financing to the obvious hostility the State Department had initially
expressed to the group’s request.
Mboya’s decision was a rebuke to Nixon, who had failed to deliver the State Department until after the Kennedy family had stepped forward with funding.
At the time, the State Department was turning down Mboya’s request in deference to the government of Jomo Kenyatta, which had argued, contrary to Mboya, that young, talented Kenyans should study closer to home and attend Makerere College in neighboring Uganda, instead of being trained in American universities.
Still, the myth of JFK’s role in bringing President Obama’s father to the U.S. persisted, reported again Jan. 10, 2009, only 10 days before the inauguration by Washington-based reporter Elana Schor of London’s Guardian newspaper.
On March 30, 2008, Michael Dobbs published an article in the Washington Post, carefully entitled “Obama Overstates Kennedy’s Role in Helping His Father,” so as not to characterize candidate Obama’s Selma remarks as a lie.
“Obama spokesman Bill Burton acknowledged yesterday that the senator from Illinois had erred in crediting the Kennedy family with a role in his father’s arrival in the United States,” Dobbs wrote. “[Burton] said the Kennedy
involvement in the Kenya student program apparently started 48 years ago, not 49 years ago as Obama has mistakenly suggested in the past.”
To correct the “overstatement,” Dobbs incorrectly reported that Barack Obama Sr. had come to the United States in the Sept. 9, 1959, initial airlift organized by Jackie Robinson without the financial support of the Kennedy family.
“There was enormous excitement when the Britannia aircraft took off for New York with the future Kenyan elite aboard,” Dobbs wrote of the first airlift. “After a few weeks of orientation, the students were dispatched to universities
across the United States to study subjects that would help them govern Kenya after the departure of the British. Obama Sr. was interested in economics and was sent to Hawaii, where he met, and later married, a Kansas native named Ann
Dunham.”
Further corroboration that Barack Obama Sr. was not on the first airlift is provided by Tom Shachtman in his 2009 book, “Airlift to America.”
On page 9 of the book, Shachtman confirms Mboya was unable to transport Barack Obama Sr. to the United States on any of the airlifts organized by Jackie Robinson or the AASF.
Nativity story
WND also has reported that contrary to the president’s statements, his father did not abandon the family in Hawaii when he accepted an invitation to study at Harvard in 1962.
Documents uncovered by WND also have raised questions about whether President Obama’s parents ever lived together as husband and wife, despite Obama’s repeated assertions his parents lived together in Hawaii during the first two
years of his life.
WND has reported the only documentation for Ann Dunham’s marriage to Barack Obama Sr. comes from their divorce documents that list the marriage date as Feb. 2, 1961.
In actuality, it isn’t clear Obama’s parents were married, since official records have never been produced showing a legal ceremony took place. No wedding certificate or photograph of a ceremony for Dunham and Obama Sr. has
ever been found or published.
WND previously reported Michelle Obama stated at a public event that her husband’s mother was “very young and very single” when she gave birth to the future U.S. president.

In England, and English colonies and commonwealths, they typically date things: dd/mm/yyyy. True, but on a hunch, when this was first released, I may have been the first person to find on the Wiki international date format page that Kenya is one of the few countries in the world that was listed as regularly using BOTH formats.
The original source data (from memory) came from IBM software manuals that were used to set up computer software formats by country around the world.
An Obot named Mystylplx immediately edited the Wiki page, but was reversed and locked for a time, but now all specific references to Kenya using two formats have disappeared from the text of the page except for the world map, which may have been harder for the Obot scrubbers to edit.
Kenya is still color-coded purple on the world map as a dual format country at this site:
There is a ready explanation for two formats in the fact that Kenya, when founded, was formed by the merger of two separate legal entities, Kenya Colony and Coast Province, which may well have used two different formats in their separate clerical cultures.
FOR THE RECORD:
Administrators and doctors there told WND sources that in 2004 a high-level team of Kenyas National Security Intelligence Service came to the hospital and seized all files containing birth certificate documents from the years 1960 through 1963.
Same thing happened in Indonesia:
