Different lines of logic (this writer actually thinks a hormonal teen could find adoptive parents herself??) but same conclusion. Of course Barack Obama was born in Vancouver. Reverse engineering the story is the correct way to find the truth.
And this writer at the link does add something to my theory. Perhaps even the Salvation Army run Unwed Mother home could not find an adoptive family for Barack. Knowing he would appear black, it might have been harder. Even black families in Vancouver (were there many in 1961?) might have feared a really light skinned child, because others might have suspected the wife of cheating on the husband.
Honest to Gd, this is sad to me. Psychologically I have always felt very sorry for the CHILD Barack, rejected by both parents. But he may have also been rejected by all potential adoptive parents as well. And Stanley Ann would have told him this. No wonder he became a malignant narcissist.
Either way, if she was forced to keep her baby or if she chose to keep her baby, he was born in Canada and was never for one second an American citizen until the government handed him a ceremonial passport to fulfill his duties as a US Senator.
