Yes, the little PUMA claims she had one of her supporters track it down.
The archive for the Honolulu paper where this may have appeared is not operating, I get an error message. Tried again today.
The real tragedy is that there isn't a single FReeper within a thousand miles of the paper's office. There is no one who can devote an afternoon to walking into the paper's home office and physically examining the relevant microfilm.
No one.
No one.
Really...? No Freepers out there in Honolulu....? Wow.
(*hand raised*) ;^P
What about BIGLOOK who is quite familiar with the area? Also the birth announcement clipping appeared in both “The Honolulu Advertiser” (Sunday, August 13,1961 edition) and “The Honolulu Star-Bulletin” but the date it appeared is unknown.(For some reason August 16,1961 sticks in my mind) Both appeared on Texas Darling’s blog, with one submitted by a PUMA with the first name of Laurie who was there to do a documentary on Obama while the second one was posted by someone using the screen name of koa. Please note that both papers have a web edition but “The Star- Bulletin” was bought by Canadian interests in 1996 and the only archives online are from that date. It is unknown if they retained archives prior to the take-over, which is something I questioned earlier because of the fact that Obama himself mentioned the article of his father’s interview after graduation, which appeared in “The Honolulu Star-Bulletin” and which he supposedly found along with his birth certificate and some medical records when he was a teen. Going to the website of “The Honolulu Advertiser” they actually accessed the archive library and reprinted portions of the interviews with Sr. which can be found here but “The Star-Bulletin” does not!
