Box last saw her friend in 1961, when she visited Seattle on her way from Honolulu to Massachusetts, where her then-husband was attending Harvard.
Which now that I have reread this bookmark, I realize it was WRONG.
The friend states that Dunham saw her friend in 1961 when she was traveling to Massechusetts to be with Obama at Harvard. But Obama Sr did not graduate the University of Hawaii until JUNE 1962!! Then he went to Mass. to attend Harvard in the fall.
Now here’s the kicker, is this Box lady lying because she knows where Obama’s mother was coming from and heading to? Or was Ann lying to her friend because she was ashamed that she was now the single mother of a child at 18 and knew Sr had another wife in Kenya?
the friend who saw her in Seattle with a 3 wk old newborn is named Susan Blake
unless there are several friend interviews
Parental objections didn't matter. For Stanley Ann, her new relationship with Barack Obama and weekend discussions seemed to be, in part, a logical extension of long coffeehouse sessions in Seattle and the teachings of Wichterman and Foubert. The forum now involved graduate students from the University of Hawaii. They spent weekends listening to jazz, drinking beer and debating politics and world affairs.
The self-assured and opinionated Obama spoke with a voice so deep that "he made James Earl Jones seem like a tenor," said Neil Abercrombie, a Democratic congressman from Hawaii who was part of those regular gatherings.
While Obama was impatient and energized, Stanley Ann, whom Abercrombie described as "the original feminist," was endlessly patient but quietly passionate in her arguments. She was the only woman in the group.
"I think she was attracted to his powerful personality," Abercrombie said, "and he was attracted to her beauty and her calmness."
So Neil was friends with Ann and Barack Sr.? Then he MUST have seen them together on the island when Ann was preggers, right? SOMEONE had to have seen her....or so you'd think.
