Well, I came accross this little didy today... The rumor is that BHO is really the son of Malcolm X.
Now before you go and throw me to the wolves (not saying I totally believe it) you have got to check out this site. I have to tell you that when I watched the video of Malcolm, I was FREAKED out at the physical lkieness and the exact manerisms. Especially the hand jestures. It is downright CREEPY!!!!
the information I quoted from THE OBAMA FILE re Stanley Ann Dunham was sourced from the Chicago Tribune, the link is no longer extant. I believe most of the Chicago Tribune articles re Dunham have been removed.
http://www.time.com/time/printout/0,8816,1729524,00.html
“...She spent her high school years on a small island in Washington, taking advanced classes in philosophy and visiting coffee shops in Seattle. “She was a very intelligent, quiet girl, interested in her friendships and current events,” remembers Maxine Box, a close high school friend. Both girls assumed they would go to college and pursue careers. “She wasn’t particularly interested in children or in getting married,” Box says. Although Stanley was accepted early by the University of Chicago, her father wouldn’t let her go. She was too young to be off on her own, he said, unaware, as fathers tend to be, of what could happen when she lived in his house.
After she finished high school, her father whisked the family away again—this time to Honolulu, after he heard about a big new furniture store there. Hawaii had just become a state, and it was the new frontier. Stanley grudgingly went along yet again, enrolling in the University of Hawaii as a freshman...”
Chicago Tribune article:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/obama/chi-0703270151mar27-archive,0,2623808.story?page=3
“...When the Mercer Island High School yearbooks began circulating in the spring of 1960, Stanley Ann’s senior year, classmates scribbled best wishes to friends and remembered slumber parties, one mother’s exceptionally good chocolate cake and thoughts on some goofy boys.
Dunham wrote to Maxine Box: “Remember me when you are old and gray. Love & Luck, Stanley.” Seemingly out of the blue, her father had found a better opportunity — another furniture store, this one in Hawaii. “He just couldn’t settle,” Box recalled...”
You were correct about that 1959 date caption with the year-book photograph being wrong - this article makes it clear the year was 1960.
I’m tellin’ ya ... it’s downright eerie!
See #134.
Thanks for the ping!
Bumping because I bet it’s true.
I heart it LucyT. The guy sure looks like him doesn’t he.
Thanks for the Ping, Fred, and for the notation about the 1959 photo date caption being wrong. The article indeed does make clear it was 1960.
It makes me wonder how many other dates in Obama’s “Dreams” timeline are also wrong.
Lots of misinformation!
I don’t have the book, and like you, have been getting information from articles and articles posted on Freerepublic.
However, the following links to several articles, in addition to excerpts from Obama’s book, “Dreams” illustrates the following:
1. University of Washington is NEVER referenced as a place where she attended ...either via extension or Full time status...or even the fact that she first lived with a friend of her mother’s, also in student housing and also at an apartment on Capitol Hill.
1. The gap of 1961 to 1962 is absolutely glossed over in Ann Dunham’s life.....
Wikipedia has now since been updated to include information about Ann Dunham as of 10/27/2008, it seems. However, the info that Obama put out seemed to gloss over this
Ann Dunham at Wikipedia...source citation #10.
Seattle Sun Times, April 8, 2008 by John Martin: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2004334057_obama08m.html (Looks to be changed as of 10/27/2008 ^ a b c Martin, Jonathan (2008-04-08). “Obama’s mother known here as ‘uncommon’”, 2008-10-27
Regarding Ann Dunham and what family members and “Dreams” book states about her post-high school time:
FAMILY STATES:
“Dunham, who died of ovarian cancer in 1995, is described as the “most dominant figure” in Obama’s life. Obama’s half-sister says Dunham remembered her teen years on Mercer Island so fondly that she wanted to attend college in Seattle. Instead, her parents took her after high school to Hawaii, where Obama was born.”
“DREAMS” book states:
“”Blazing new trails”
As graduation neared for the class of 1960, Dunham had hoped to join many of her classmates at the University of Washington, and was also accepted to the University of Chicago, according to Obama’s memoir, the best-selling “Dreams from My Father.”
But her father was restless. He found sales work in Hawaii, then newly a state. He insisted his daughter, who wouldn’t turn 18 until November, attend the University of Hawaii, Soetoro-Ng said.
“She always said [Mercer Island] was a great place to grow up,” said Soetoro-Ng, who now teaches at the University of Hawaii. “She found it a nice mix between civilization and the rural expression and nature.”
I don’t think the “Dreams” book touched on anything about Univ. of Washington
In the article, Friends of Ann say,
“The marriage was brief. By 1962, Dunham had returned to Seattle as a single mother, enrolling in the UW for spring quarter and living in an apartment on Capitol Hill. But friends said she got overwhelmed and returned to her family in Hawaii, and formally divorced Obama Sr. in 1964.
Also, The information about Univ of Washington timeframe had been requested by a person named Rudy who requested via email info from the University of Washington’s registrar.
Article posted on FreeRepublic:ATLAS SHRUGS HAS EMAIL EVIDENCE, STANLEY ANN DUNHAM NOT IN HAWAII WHEN OBAMA BORN?
Atlas Shrugs ^ | October 27, 2008 | Pamela Geller
From article-”Atlas reader Rudy emailed both the University of Washington and the University of Hawaii, and they sent him back dates of enrollment. It didn’t match the dates Wikipedia had for Stanley Ann Dunham. Bob tried to update Wikipedia and his updates got deleted within minutes”
Ms. Stanley Ann Dunham was enrolled at the University of Washington for:
Autumn 1961
Winter 1962
Spring 1962

So, there seem to be discrepancies between what is in the Obams “Dreams” book about his mother at Univ. of Washington,
At Wikipedia, source citation # 11http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2008/jun/01/barack_obamas_mother_more_just_kansas_girl/?print
Ann is stated to have enrolled at a University in Hawaii:
Barack Obama Sr.
“When she graduated, they moved to Hawaii, where she applied to a university and quickly fell in love with one of the few black students on campus.”
It continues:
“Moving to Indonesia”
The Dunham-Obama marriage failed within three years.
Obama returned to Kenya to pursue politics but became embittered by the tribal order. He had little contact with his ex-wife and son, though she never spoke a harsh word to Barry about his father except that he was a bad driver. (He died in a traffic accident in 1982.)
In Hawaii, Dunham had re-enrolled at the university to study anthropology”
University of Hawaii transcripts show a gap between 1960 and Fall 1963 and there’s no mention of anything about Univ of Washington during that gap timeframe in the Obama “Dreams” book.
At this link:
http://www.christianfaithandreason.com/obama.html
At that link is the article titled “The Myth of Barack Obama’s Early Life” by Michael Patrick Leahy, Summer 2008 online edition August 25, 2008 ( Excerpted from the book What Does Barack Obama Believe? to be published by Harpeth River Press in September 2008)
It has quotes by Ann Dunham’s friends talking about Ann enrolling in extension classes Aug. 1961 at Univ. of Washington.
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.”

http://www.time.com/time/printout/0,8816,1729524,00.html
It talks about Ann starting at Univ of Hawaii and dropping out after one semester. The next college reference was when BO was 2, and she enrolled at Univ. of Hawaii. Again, nothing was said about her being enrolled at Univ of Washington, much less living there and living in an apartment on Capitol Hill!!Hmmmm
“Even by the standards of 1961, she was young to be married. At 18, she dropped out of college after one semester, according to University of Hawaii records. When her friends back in Washington heard the news, “we were very shocked,” says Box, her high school friend.
Later on in article:
“S. Ann Dunham Soetoro
When her son was almost 2, Ann returned to college. Money was tight. She collected food stamps and relied on her parents to help take care of young Barack. She would get her bachelor’s degree four years later. In the meantime, 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.)
In this article:
http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2008/jun/01/barack_obamas_mother_more_just_kansas_girl/?print
“When she graduated, they moved to Hawaii, where she applied to a university and quickly fell in love with one of the few black students on campus”
“...The Dunham-Obama marriage failed within three years.
Obama returned to Kenya to pursue politics but became embittered by the tribal order.”
“In Hawaii, Dunham had re-enrolled at the university to study anthropology.”
Again, not a mention about the Univ of Washington at all in Ann Dunham’s life...which is very curious.
Those are just from a small sample of articles and excerpts I could find from “Dreams” but I thought I would post these now.
A few freepers have mentioned they think 0bama had rhinoplasty, plastic surgery on his nose. Apparently they were comparing his earlier photos with current ones.
Grampa Dave, you’re the expert at detecting facial structure changes, what do you think?
I never knew Wright was actually parroting the words of Malcolm X:
~~~~
“Around this time, Malcolm X made a comment regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1961.
“He never foresaw the chickens would come home to roost,” was the famous comment where the media and public lost a lot of sympathy for Malcolm X and his cause.”
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/42281
But her father was restless. He found sales work in Hawaii, then newly a state. He insisted his daughter, who wouldn’t turn 18 until November, attend the University of Hawaii, Soetoro-Ng said.
'But her father was restless'? I can almost see ayres at this point of the narrative, sitting at the keyboard, following the story-board he has created.
Yep- that’s a classic from Malcolm X. Also- Obama- particularly in certain areas of the country will say “Don’t let them hoodwink and bamboozle you”.....these expressions were also used by Malcom X when talking about white people ...
It’s sad, but there’s a current of Reverend Wrightism running right through many Black American churches. Folks, there are a good many decent Black Churches too, so I’m not trying to trash Black Christians in total at all. I just think it’s important to note that Wright, Farrakhan, Sharpton, Jackson and others are out there preaching hatred for this nation and it’s leadership. And for sake of accuracy, they have very little to do with Christianity at all, in that they don’t adhere to Christian teachings.
Obama is the product of one of these Churches, and unfortunately his upbringing exposed him to people who would propagandize and exploit him up until as late as this year.
Wright was simply the last in a long string of people who contributed to turn Obama into what he is today. It was done on purpose. The evil he will perpetrate will be their reward.
We have a time bomb on our hands. The only question is, do we wish to take it into our national home and let it blow up in the middle of it.
For me that’s a big no.
A Big NObama - I’m with YOU!
Thanks NordP. Take care bud.
I will second your prayer, but starting on November 5th, we as a Conservative group of people need to get to work to make sure THIS NEVER HAPPENS again.
We need to start at the grass roots and remake this nation, just the way the left is trying to do it.
It’s time for a new beginning, a new dedication to the founding principles, and people who aren’t afraid to support them.
If we can’t do this, then we are being unfair to God to ask Him to bail us out this time.
I take the pledge. THIS NEVER HAPPENS again.
