This is the same man that says he is Obama's great-uncle. I don't know where the confusion about "Charles T." versus "Charles W." came into the picture, but this man is Charles T. Payne. He has a well-documented history in Illinois. He's been interviewed multiple times by Chicago newspapers and tv stations and by the Associated Press. He has provided photographs of his sister, Madelyn, and his neice, Stanley Ann. Obama's a liar, but I don't think he's lying about this man.

If this is incorrect then the confusion was created here.
