Gone from Kenya for 7 years? 1962. Difficult to read.
Y'all caught that too, huh. The article is dated 1962, so less 7 would make him last in Kenya in 1955. There's been some questions with of few FRiends about when he really did leave Kenya and if he arrived in America long before he enrolled at the univeristy in 1959. The seven year timeframe would fit as that would make him leaving shortly after he left or was kicked out of the Maseno school in 1954 and "marrying" Kesia supposedly in 1955. However, Sarah tells a tale of him being in "the white man's prison" (http://www.theobamafile.com/_family/Senior.htm) in Kenya in 1958 but I take everything Sarah says with a 40 lb. bag of salt. So, what was he doing and where was he between 1954/5 and 1959? Or, if he lied, then what was the reason?
