The Wedding Picture: I think it comes out of the Time Magazine article? If not, out of his book. I don't have physical copies of either one but we can look at both. I have Time bookmarked; I may have the book.

I know I have seen the reference elsewhere but it may turn out to be someone quoting one of us.

"I think it comes out of the Time Magazine article?"

When I posted my posting I said I got it from the Time Magazine. That was Time Magazine April 21, 2008, pg 38. I ASSUMED it was a wedding picture, based on this. "Ann seemed drawn to foreign men. First she married Kenyan Barack Obama Sr,. below,....". The below was the picture of Barack Sr and Ann wearing a white dress.

I made the mistake of identifying it as their wedding picture. At NO time did I say Barack stated it was their wedding picture. So without some source of that it is best you don't say Barack "confirms" it as their wedding picture. Do you have a different Time Magazine that states he said that? If so can you give the exact quote?

Yes. Time published that picture next to a block of text talking about the wedding. It wasn't a caption.

Perhaps that's just the way things fit together in layout, perhaps it was done to deliberately re-enforce the idea that the wedding, for which there doesn't appear to be a legal record, actually happened. (Gotta quash those rumors that he's a bastard!)

Would you put misleading the public past Time?
