Give me your best guess where Obama naturalized in 1983. I need feedback on how much is sinking in.
I believe he was a resident of New York-attending and graduating from Columbia University around 1983 thus that would be my guess. Depending on when in 1983 he naturalized, he could have been elsewhere, Chicago, Hawaii, somewhere where he could claim 3 months residency prior to applying.
Just catching up on this page of the discussion - where was 0bama when he naturalized in 1983.
Was he still at Occidental at that time? Or was he already in NYC? If he was in NYC, (which now I am thinking he likely was), then perhaps Ayers wanted him to naturalize so he could run for President?
Have you read Race Bannon’s account of meeting a tall skinny mulatto fellow with big ears in Hawaii in 1980 who told him he was planning to be president, had been raised in Indonesia, and was born in Kenya? It’s bee posted many times but I don’t know if you’ve seen it.

Oops - meant to courtesy ping you, forgot to add your name. To my comment above.
Also just thought - if he was planning as early as 1980 to run for President (no doubt the idea from others put there), why did he not re-capture his US citizenship when he was legally able to?
Could he have not know that he needed to? Maybe the notice sent to him from the State Dept didn’t reach him?
That’s odd.
