Snopes’ attempted explanation fails because the number belonged to Jean Paul Ludwig, whose estate was settled in a Hawaiian court where Obama’s grandmother worked. He had no heirs who would need to use the number for benefits. Circumstantial evidence strongly suggests she lifted the number on behalf of the little illegal alien grandchild, fully expecting nobody would ever notice.

Now, on a related topic, I wonder what Freepers think about the alleged Obama Columbia student id that Snopes claims is a fraud. It says “foreign student” in bold letters at the bottom. Has anybody got a similar one from the same period? Snopes claims the number is lifted from somebody else’s id, but they have the credibility of a snake.

IMHO, this issue will never be settled unless Congress launches an investigation, and uses contempt charges on university academes and others who have the information, but won't cooperate without coercion. Romney and fellow RINOS would snuff that, unless public pressure overwhelms.

Wrong!
