That adoption by Lolo is crucial and credence is given to that fact by the divorce she obtained in 1980 from Lolo. When Barry graduated from High School he was Barry Soetoro. Less tha a year later his mothe robtained the divoce decree stating there were two legal children of/in the marriage, one over 18 needing educational funding. Barry entered Occidental college as Barry Soetoro. In so doing he—after reaching 18—abrogated American citizenship for identification as an Indonesian citizen. Now, when did he legally change his name to be able to perjure himself in IL claiming he used no other name but Barack Obama in his past?
False. He enrolled as "Barack Obama" and was known as "Barry" except to close friends.
It was when he moved on to Columbia and resolved to establish his "identity" that he asked people to call him "Barack".
He had ceased to be "Barry Soetoro" at the time he was sent back to Hawaii to live with the grandparents and attend Punahou.
Sorry, but the facts are the facts.
Changing one’s name must be, by its very nature, an act requiring legal public notice. In other words, the documents cannot be sealed.
As far as any researcher has looked, Barry Soetoro never changed his name to Barack Hussein Obama II.
