HALF-BROTHER DAVID 'Everybody's favorite'
September 9, 2007
BY SCOTT FORNEK Political Editor David Obama was Barack Obama's other half-brother from the marriage of their father and an American woman named Ruth. David Obama was killed in a motorcycle accident before Barack Obama's 1987 visit to Kenya.
" 'He became everybody's favorite,' " Obama's half sister Auma tells him in Dreams From My Father. "'He was so sweet, you know, and funny, even if he was sometimes too wild. . . . His death broke everybody's heart.' "
...A bit of digging reveals that it is pretty tough to find when Obama’s half-brother David Ndesandjo died; some sites put it at 1987. So in the span of several pages, we have an anedote from 1983 (when Obama tells the guard he is 22), his half-brother’s death (at age 25-26?), and a reference to Kemp (which couldn’t have happened before Obama was 28).

After placing the two side by side, I am beginning to think that the toddler image we have been led to believe was of zero...was 'David' all along: 
...and the reason for the 'confusion' regarding when he 'died' may have been created by the NEED to hide zero's first visit to Kenya shortly after the 'old man' died in 1982.
So...who is the child Stanley Ann is supposedly holding in this image...or do we have ANOTHER example of being in two places at the same time?
PS. Presented for your interest and speculation only, I have no answers! Feel free to add any theory you like...there is only ONE IMAGE of 'David' as a youth and that could be anyone...I am particularly interested in theories as to how one child could be so much lighter in skin colour than the other...if that child had the same parents...
