A scholarly and beautifully written piece of work. Still open though, to scholarly and well thought out rebuttals. Rebuttals that I would openly and without quick dismissal, I would like to read.
I have worn out my genealogical research groups with this question. This on the factor of the Kenyan Barack Obama Sr. Not to get paranoid, but the premier research paid record, I subscribe to, has actually been spammed, on the name Obama.
I would presume it is to show researchers that if there was anything revealing to the name Obama, they got there first.
