If not, then why do photographs of him at Occidental College and in New York City in the years when he was supposed to have attended Columbia University show him wearing a ring on the ring finger of his left hand?
First, consider the photograph of Obama taken with his grandparents, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, on a park bench in front of Central Park, most likely along Fifth Avenue, as seen in Exhibit 1

That’s an African symbolic dress-ring known as an elephant hair ring, the one zero is wearing just happens to be in gold. Why would anyone assume that was a wedding ring?
Photoshopped. Original guy in picture was married.
Look up the mystery black man hand in the photo of Obama’s mother. Just one weird thing after another with Zero.
Something is not right here. I am not married. I have NEVER worn a ring like this.
There is so much we don’t know!
It’s the secret decoder ring he got from a box of Crackerjacks at Bill Ayres’ birthday party. Marxists don’t believe in marriage.
Obama needs to be vetted 24 7 no matter what.
Muslim men are only allowed to wear one ring that is iron polished with silver. In many of these photos, that appears to be gold. (Yellow ring like gold or copper is expressly forbidden for men- Abu Dawud, Book 34, Number 4211, Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 72, Number 754, Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 72, Number 759)
Isn’t it possible that he later had that “iron polished with silver” ring, gold platted?
or....
It’s a ring FMD gave him.
What was his name?
Larry sinclaire.
In the close-up photo in exhibit 8, it looks like a boar head with wings.
Gold platted would still be forbidden for men. It is the color that was mentioned in the Quran as the ring from an idol.
Most likely explanation is it is just a kid in the 70s and 80s trying to be cool and wearing something exotic (see previous comments re elephant hair ring).
I will never forgive those who voted Ghettobama.
What his ring looks like is meaningless, Elephant hair rings come in as many styles as one can manipulate the hairs of an elephant’s tail...the one he is wearing just happens to be made of gold.
I fail to see the elephant hair in his ring.
There isn’t any. The original Elephant hair rings are made with the hair of an elephants tail.
HIS IS MADE OF GOLD.
Click the GOOGLE image link upthread if you want to see what they look like, there are hundreds of versions.
The Elephant Hair ring makes a lot of sense. Remember in the late 70s and early 80s there was a big African fashion movement that sprung from the black power movement. From clothing to jewelry, the style was to connect with Africa in some way.
Just a kid trying to be cool.
Every time I see that silly ring described as a wedding ring, I wanna SCREAM!
It’s just a silly dress-ring he has worn since he was a teen.
yeah, I looked at that link. I’m on page 11. ALL the rings have visible identifiable elephant hair. On page 5 FreeRepublic is linked. Your post perhaps?
What you’re saying is that obama’s ring represents/suggests elephant hair. There is no real hair on his ring.
So a wire wrapped around another wire is an elephant ring?
