Article linked below could help a lot with timelines (if it’s reliable, yeah I know, TIME Magazine.....). Reporter says that when Obama’s mother prepared to marry and take him to Indonesia in 1967 (she met Lolo Sotoro, her 2nd husband, also at U. of Hawaii just as with her 1st), that neither she nor Barack, Jr. had ever been out of the country - article states she was obtaining 1st passport for both of them.

If so, that would blow apart speculation that Barack, Jr. was born out of the country (unless this is disinformation). But at this point I’m not seeing any reason to doubt the basic timeline in this article.......


The Story of Barack Obama’s Mother

“....she met another foreign student, Lolo Soetoro, at the University of Hawaii. (”It’s where I send all my single girlfriends,” jokes her daughter Soetoro-Ng, who also married a man she met there.) He was easygoing, happily devoting hours to playing chess with Ann’s father and wrestling with her young son. Lolo proposed in 1967.”

“Mother and son spent months preparing to follow him to Indonesia—getting shots, passports and plane tickets. Until then, neither had left the country. After a long journey, they landed in an unrecognizable place.

Just a late night thought. Remember the hoopla two three months ago about a lack of security in candidates’ passport info. Much of the evidence pointed to Hillary’s people being behind it. Maybe they were looking for the same info on Obama’s qualifications.If that’s the case then this is a futile search. If such evidence existed Hillary and her flying monkeys would have found it.
