In the last year or so respected publishers have released four biographies by mainstream authors that feature, as a central fact, the birth of President Barack Obama to his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham (Ann), in 1961.
Given that there has been a certain controversy about the birth, one might expect that each of the books would, if not settle the controversy, at least deal with it intelligently. None of them does.
These books include a 2010 biography of the president, "The Bridge," by New Yorker editor David Remnick; a 2011 biography of Dunham, "A Singular Woman," by New York Times reporter Janny Scott; a 2011 biography of Barack Obama Sr., "The Other Barack," by Sally Jacobs of the Boston Globe; and a 2010 multi-generational biography of the Obama family, "The Obamas," by BBC journalist Peter Firstbrook.
Clearly, if Dunham had not given birth to Obama, none of these four books would have been written. Yet the authors are shockingly mute on the subject of Dunham's pregnancy and Obama's birth.
University of Hawaii records show that Dunham left school at the end of January in 1961, and subsequent divorce records suggest a Maui wedding on Feb. 2. This is where the paper trial ends.
As to the Maui wedding, everyone writes with uncertainty. Jacobs says only, "The couple apparently had a quiet civil ceremony." Scott writes that the wedding took place "reportedly on the island of Maui." (Italics mine)
In Remnick's account, Dunham tells no one about the wedding, but in Firstbrook's imaginative account, the parents accompany the happy couple on the trip to Maui. As Obama has conceded, there are no wedding photos and no documents.

I hate to tell you, he looks like his Aunt Zucinni in drag. She could pass for his Mamma or twin Sista.
His Mama is his Aunt Zietini ....
Can somone morph the two?
If Frank Marshall Davis isn’t Barry’s pop, then who is? Obama Sr or Malcolm X?
“His Mama is his Aunt Zietini ....”
If Aunt Zietini is Barry’s mother, then who could Barry’s white father be? Elvis Presley?
I think we should be looking for the mother, cause it ain’t SAD. then we will know who daddy is.
I agree 100% that SAD isn’t Barry’s mom.
Madeline Payne seems to be the best choice.
“Malcolm X was married and had six daughters in the early 1960’s.”
And, lest we forget, he lived 5000 miles away from Ann.
Distance-wise, that’s like claiming Joe Biden’s ‘real’ father was actually someone living in Athens, Greece.
I didn't know Andrew Sullivan was a Freeper.
“I didn’t know Andrew Sullivan was a Freeper.”
Sorry, you lost me with the “Andrew Sullivan” reference?
Does Andrew Sullivan (whoever he is) believe that Barry’s parents are FMD & Madeline Payne?
“And, lest we forget, he lived 5000 miles away from Ann.”
I agree, I really don’t see how Malcolm X could have been been Barry’s father.
Nah. He's the lefty nut job who thinks that Sarah Palin is actually Trig Palin's grandmother.
Okay, now I get the reference. I don’t believe Sarah Palin is Trig’s grandmother, but I do believe Madeline Payne (Barry’s so-called grandmother) is actually his mom.
I’m assuming that you must believe SAD is Barry’s mom. If so, then who is Barry’s dad?
I believe that anyone who spends their time speculating about such things needs a hobby.
You must believe in the ‘Dreams from My Father’ narrative and that Barack Obama Sr & Ann Dunham are Barry’s parents.
Just curious, how do you explain away discrepancies in the ‘Dreams’ narrative and evidence to the contrary? Or do you just close your eyes?
I believe that the number of swing voters, people who are other wise ready to support BO, but who will cast their votes against him, in 2012, on such considerations, is zero.
On the other hand, I believe that the number of swing voters, people who are other wise ready to not support BO, but who will cast their votes for him, in 2012, because of the antics of Birthers, who peddle this sort of Bravo Sierra -- when not agitating for military coups -- is far greter than zero.
Zero looks NOTHING WHATSOEVER like Frank Marshall Davis. What I’m really curious about is your irrational fixation on FMD. It’s a sick fixation based on nothing at all other than your mental bias and ideas that have no facts or evidence whatsoever to back them up.
I can only wonder at your motive.
I don’t think I’m buying the Malcolm X theory, Fred. As fair-complexioned as MX was, if he had paired up with lily-white SAD, Obama would most likely have turned out so pale as to be virtually indistinguishable from a Caucasian. Ear shape is way off, too.
We don’t, and most likely “Obama” himself doesn’t know who his real biological father is. Which of course means that he could very well be eligible to hold office; it just then also means that he’s a total fraud, from Arizona to Zeituni.
