When did Obama change his name, and did he do it officially?
>>>When did Obama change his name, and did he do it officially?
On his bar application he entered ‘no’ to aliases. He would not have been able to do that if there was a legal papertrail showing a name change.
I am close to someone who emigrated to the US legally, became a naturalized citizen, and later changed his name. He did it legally with some kind of form and had to post an announcement in the newspaper a few times. There is a way to do with a lawyer. I don’t see why there wouldn’t be a public record, this was in the early 90s.
