“personally had a hard time seeing the similarities between obama sr. or Davis. But I see it in photos with Malcom X.”
One of my inborn skills is facial recognition and how that transfer to relations of people I see and their relatives or photos.
Like you, I have never seen any resembalance with Barack Sr and Frank Davis with 0baMa0.
There is a definition relation ship between 0BaMa0 and his maternal grand dad with a good mixture or African/Arabic facial genes thrown in.
The pictures of Malcolm X without his glasses and 0BaMa0 with 0baMa0’s granddad’s ears and other facial genes are a little on the scary side re the resembalances.
Agreed - no mistaking grandpa in him ;)
And I’m leaning more and more to true possibility of x - but as one of my favorite posters has said privately - there is the possibility that mom may not have known for sure who the father was.
See post #86 of this thread and follow the link in that post to ANOTHER article about Ann Dunham at the Univ. of Washington,that is an excerpt from the documented book:
IMPORTANT Univ. of Washington transcript info is included in the article:
After Ann gave birth to Obama (birth date of Aug. 6, 1961), Ann signed up for classes at Univ. of Washington just several weeks of giving birth to Obama. Obama Sr. was still back at Univ of Hawaii taking courses. Ann Dunham DID NOT go back to Univ. of Hawaii UNITL OBAMA SR. had left the Island.
Why was it so necessary for Ann Dunham to take her infant baby and ENROLL over 2,000 miles away in classes at Univ. of Washington? Was it to be near Obama’s “real” father?? Ann first lived in student housing and later at a Capitol Hill apartment...see last quote below.
“...Blake recalls that Dunham, who was calling herself Ann Obama at the time, visited her at her house in Mercer Island during the last week of August, 1961.
She left Honolulu just as soon she had clearance from her doctor to travel with her new baby. He was just 3 weeks old. She had sent a postcard that she would be in town, and was staying with a friend of her mother’s.
“The real purpose of this trip, however, may have been different than Stanley Ann Dunham described to her friends. In August, 1961, she enrolled in a University of Washington extension course. Between August, 1961 and March 1962, she enrolled in a total of four extension courses at the University of Washington, earning a total of 20 credits for her work in those courses, no small feat, considering that graduation required 180 credits, and the typical full time student earned 45 credits a year. Neither Box nor Blake has any recollection of Stanley Ann telling them she was enrolling on that same trip in extension courses at the University of Washington. (40)
It was a curious visit, and a curious academic choice. Why would she enroll in extension courses at the University of Washington when she had found herself intellectually stimulated during her previous year of studies at the University of Hawaii?”
on page 8 on online edition of article:
“In March, 1962, Stanley Ann Dunham moved from Honolulu to Seattle, Washington, where she enrolled as a full time student at the University of Washington for the spring quarter, which continued until June, 1962, and got her own apartment. She enrolled in classes and earned 10 credit hours that quarter.
Seattle Times journalist Jonathan Martin reports that some high school classmates recall visiting her and her young son alternately at the Laurelhurst student housing, then at a Capitol Hill apartment during the period that stretched from March 1962 to at least September 1962.” (43)
Hmmmm
Thanks, Grampa Dave.
