While out promoting my new book, “Deconstructing Obama,” I have been asked a few times about Obama’s mysterious Social Security number.
Not knowing enough to speak authoritatively, I chose to swim upstream through the data flood and head for the source.
Here I found a no-nonsense licensed investigator from Ohio named Susan Daniels. Widowed at 30 with seven children, Daniels went back to school and eventually emerged as a certified paralegal.
After several years working for others, Daniels got her own license as an investigator in 1995. Since then, she has specialized in litigation support for law firms. Her particular strength has been in researching assets.
By her own admission, Daniels is “good with public records.” She knows her way around databases and has access to many that the public does not.
“I did not like the way things were going,” Daniels says of the country’s drift circa 2009. And so in the best spirit of citizen journalism, she began to investigate Obama on her own.
What she and fellow investigator Neil Sankey unearthed was a nugget that could have ended the career of a George Bush or a Sarah Plain: Barack Obama had been using a social security number issued in Connecticut between 1977 and 1979, a state in which he never lived or even visited at that time in his life.
This will not come as news to the readers of WorldNetDaily, whose thorough investigation climaxed last June when WND’s veteran White House correspondent Les Kinsolving confronted Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs on the subject.
Predictably, Gibbs laughed Kinsolving off and switched the subject to the birth certificate. Kinsolving had seen this kind of laugh and switch before. In 1982, for instance, he introduced the subject of AIDS to then press secretary Larry Speakes.
“Over a third of [the victims] have died,” said Kinsolving. “It’s known as ‘gay plague.’”
“I don’t have it. Do you?” joked Speakes to a general round of laughter. But unlike Gibbs, Speakes simply did not know any better.
As much as Daniels appreciates the work of WND and other serious investigators who have helped clarify the picture, she is distressed by the few who have clouded it.
“There have been many playing junior investigator from the start,” she jokes. “I don't know if they even have their decoder rings yet.”
This being the case, I asked Daniels to guide me through the data mine field and help me ascertain what we know for sure about the world’s best-known social security number--042-68-4425.
“All I can say,” says Daniels of 042-68-4425, “is that it’s phony and [Obama] has been using it, with it first appearing on his selective service document in 1980.”
Daniels sent me a copy of the hand-written application of the individual who held the number immediately before Obama’s, 042-68-4424. The applicant, Thomas Wood, died at age nineteen which is why his information is available.
Wood's Social Security number was issued sometime between March and May of 1977. Obama would turn sixteen in August of that year. Woods lived on Glenview Drive in Newington, Connecticut, the state from which all “042s” applied. Obama lived in Hawaii.
True to form, the left-leaning media set out to undermine the Social Security controversy and ridicule the investigators. Revealing, however, is the weakness of the response.
“Numbers are assigned based on the return address on the request envelope, not residency,” crowed Jason Linkins in the Huffington Post as though he had said something meaningful. Linkins suggested two possible explanations, both preposterous.
One is that Obama applied for his SSN as a little boy in Indonesia for no known reason, and the application just happened to be processed in Connecticut for no known reason either.
For the second, Jinkins cited the argument of Carole Glibert, in the Yahoo-related “Associated Content.” Said Gilbert, presumably with a straight face, “In fact, Barack Obama's dad attended college in Connecticut and in 1977, Obama was college aged; is it beyond reason to consider that he might have checked out his father's alma mater?”
Last time I checked, Harvard was in Massachusetts. The closest town to Harvard in Connecticut is about 90 minutes away, and there is no record that Obama Sr. lived there, let alone that Obama visited his imaginary alma mater and just happened to apply for a Social Security card while visiting.
Daniels also sent me a copy of Obama’s Selective Service data. Obama appears to have registered on September 4, 1980, a month after his nineteenth birthday. The form lists the telling last four digits of his “042” number, “4425.”
This is the first use of the “042” number that Daniels could find. She is just not sure it is legitimate. Some have credibly argued that the Selective Service information was forged and backdated once Obama became a presidential candidate.
“They were stupid to use the CT number on the [Selective Service] card,” Daniels adds, “because now there is no way for [Obama] to back out of that number.”

GO DONALD!
“If you’re unaware of the Sanity Squad, you must not have spent very much time on the eligibility threads. I didn’t suggest that seniority or military service should grant automatic trust.”
Sorry Charlie, but I still don’t buy it. I looked up your page and noted that you’ve actually squelched very little, if any, not unlike “curiosity”. I’ve been following the eligibility issue since it was raised on WorldNetDaily by Jos. Farah and Dr. Corsi and discussed extensively here. Moreover, I haven’t mentioned “seniority” or “automatic trust” as there is none here except for JimRob. Sometimes there is no sanity here either when the apologists weigh in. So, there you go again jimmy!
JC
Thank you.
WorldNetDaily? That’s all you had say.
WorldNetDaily? That’s all you had say.
“WorldNetDaily? That’s all you had say.”
No jimmy, there you go again. That’s not all I said, and why is it that you usually double-post your responses? That’s another nuisance. SHEEESH
JC
I don’t know who the hell Jimmy is. Talk to the boss about the double posting. That’s not my problem.
This is from memory and I do not have a link but someone may want to see if it helps shed any light on a small part of this SS# fraud. When I first looked into the information that BO has a history of using multiple SS#’s, I found an explanation for the “999” numbers. IIRC, they are temporary numbers - not “real” - that cannot be used for all the purposes of a real SS# and are typically issued to foreign students who need to have an SS# to use on various forms while in the U.S. going to school. Very limited usage for them. There was no further information that I found such as if they are issued with the second block of numbers related to when the number was issued or where it was issued like real SS numbers are. Sorry I did not keep the link.
If that info is correct, it fits in with the Occidental period. If he had his own SS#, he couldn’t use it and still claim to be a foreign student needing one of the 999 numbers. Truth is our boy was probably using both - or rather from the record you found, all three, a real one and two of the 999 numbers. Why would he have used two different 999 numbers while at Occidental? I also wonder if there is any record keeping of those numbers with disclosure when the recipient is deceased or if they are ever re-used since they are only used temporarily by the holder?
Check out her profile page and you will notice she has a Soetoro agenda. Aka FINO spammer. ‘Nuf said!!!
Today Donald Trump took the lead on the washer women’s show “VIEW” demanding to see Barry’s birth certificate, and the rumor gals were livid!!!
That earns the nomination of the FReeper's "Cod Fish Award"!!!
Yeah, I saw that. LOL
No, I'm just saying they weren't in widespread use and most things got punched in by hand.
2. It seems to me that you are blaming some clerk in Social Security's main processing office in Baltimore for accidentally typing a zero (0) instead of a "9" for Hawaii when the clerk worked on Obama's Social Security application. Is that really fair to workers at the Social Security Administration?
I think so, yes. They are human. They make mistakes.
4. Back in 1977, did ALL Social Security applications from Hawaii go straight to Baltimore?
Yes. According to the SSA, all applications, from Hawaii as well as the rest of the USA, have been processed in Baltimore since 1973:

Because a clerk is human and as such is prone to error.
Presumably, Obama filled out the application and WROTE his zip code. It’s more likely that if a typo was made by a clerk, it was a keypuncher or a computer terminal operator. In 1977, the numeric pad would have been used to type numbers. Not the numbers that are along the top of a typewriter. The 0 and the 9 are not adjacent on a numeric keypad of a keypunch machine.
Perhaps, but it is a common typo nevertheless.
If you transcribe ANY initial numeral as a 9, you “get a CT zip code”.
I don't think so.
Upon what basis do you (or Dr. Conspiracy) assume that the zip code had anything to do with assigning SS#s?
See the following link:
http://www.ssa.gov/history/ssn/geocard.html
Why not simply use the state code: CT versus HI?
I don't know, but that's not what the Social Security Administration does. They use the zip code. Period. It doesn't seem to make much sense, but then again, does it surprise you that a government agency does something that doesn't make sense?
And what do you mean by that???
I don't think that is plausible because he had no connection to Connecticut and never visited the state. Hence it would make a most inconvenient mailing address, as it would make it very difficult for him to receive his SS card.
Can you think of a pluasible reason why he would use it?
That's the first I hear of it. Got a link?
You drink, don't you? Let's start with the part I put in bold text. According to your theory, it was a government clerk who made the original typo assigning a CT SSN to someone (allegedly) from HI. Now, it's possible for a government worker to not figure out that a letter is addressed to Honolulu, CT. Do you know how much mail the SSA handles in a daily basis??
I have to confess, my FRiend, you're on some great drugs. C'n I get some of that???
I am not taking the other guys side, but if the number cannot be changed, even if an error occurred, then there is really no need to make a correction. I have no idea “why” I got the number I got. Why should Obama.
That said, there are plenty of reason to question this loser. I am not 100% sure this is one of them.
