I looked for Cindy’s comments to Maraniss and all I could find was this:

“Maraniss hints at where home was not — namely, the residence her parents shared with the Pratt family at 6085 Kalanianole Highway, the address listed on the birth certificate. As Maraniss relates, the Pratt daughter, then an adolescent, “has no memory of the Dunhams’ daughter bringing an infant home.” He adds, “[Ann] and Obama and the infant never lived [at 6085 Kalanianole].”
As I do not have access to the book, perhaps you could quote from it, exactly what she said to Maraniss. Thanks.
I would be happy to search for Cindy’s additional comments. They’re in my posting history if nowhere else (online). However, before I go to that time and trouble, let me ask you something: would it matter? If it’s clear that Cindy Pratt is talking about Stanley Ann Dunham, and Cindy establishes that SAD lived at the Kalanianaole Highway address prior to the pregnancy, would it change anything? Would you alter your theory?
If your answer is no, then why not cut out the middle man (so to speak). I’ll save some time and you’ll lose nothing. (I.e.: if your theory remains unaltered regardless of what Cindy said, then you haven’t missed out on anything that matters.)
For now, I’ll reiterate a conversation we once had. I mentioned that Maraniss is an old hand at interviewing sources. How this fact applies to Cindy is as follows. Maraniss wouldn’t have sat down with her and asked, ‘Did anyone by the name of, ‘Ann,’ ever live with you at the Kalanianaole Highway address? How about an, ‘Ann Obama?’
Maraniss was researching Barack Hussein Obama. At the time of the Dunham’s move to Honolulu, Obama’s mother was known as Stanley Ann Dunham. That would have been her name for the majority of the time she resided at the Kalanianaole Highway address. That’s who Maraniss would have asked Cindy about—the daughter of Stanley and Madelyn Dunham.
Maraniss is an Obot but he’s not a moron. He wouldn’t be where he is, reputation-wise, if he couldn’t even identify the person about whom he was gathering information. Any theory that requires him to be too stupid to identify to Cindy Pratt the exact Stanley Ann he was interested in just will not fly.
