Chief, you have some wonderful stuff.
It’s a pity you rarely attach sources/links.
They would be greatly appreciated.
The “very new and very pink” excerpt was in one of the Susan Blake videos as well as the Seattle news article written by Jonathon Martin found here:

The houses article from “The Honolulu Advertiser” can be found here:

Confirmation of the home on Kamehameha Ave. appears on p.39 of Jr’s book when he talks about the walking tours past “the private landmarks of a family” when his father visited in 1971. He says he was shown “...my grandparents’ first house in Hawaii, before the one on University Ave., a house I had never known..” We know that Obama Sr was recovering from a car accident in which he had injured his leg and was using a cane so he couldn’t walk 14 miles return to view a house on Kalanianaole Hwy. Freeper John Valentine has also verified he knew the Dunhams in 1960-61 and mentions them living on Kamehameha Ave.
The matter regarding health care in Canada is from personal memory and verified on wiki, yes I know it is wiki but it is accurate regarding medical care in Canada.
Anymore links you want just ping me as I try to play catch up to the point where I left off last night.
