The Marriage of Obama's Parents: 'In Name Only'?

So when did Ann's and Obama Sr.'s "whatever happened happened fast" wedding happen? For no apparent reason, confusion abounds among Obama's biographers over the wedding date:

1. Dreams claims that Ann and Obama Sr. were in married "in 1960"; similarly, Mendell's 2007 book claims that the couple were married "sometime in late 1960" when they "slipped off alone to the island of Maui"; and both Obamaland (2008) by Ron Jacobs (with contributor David Maraniss) and a 2007 Washington Post article claim that the two were married "late in 1960."

2. A 2007 Chicago Tribune article vaguely claims that Ann and Obama Sr. were married "six months before" Barack's birth on Aug 4, 1961 -- or, in other words, sometime in early 1961.

3. An April 2008 Time article by Amanda Ripley, as does Maraniss's August 2008 article, gives a specific date of February 2, 1961 for the wedding, apparently based on Ann's and Obama Sr.'s 1964 divorce records – mysteriously appearing on the web. But since fake documents have been known to appear on the web, Obama's biographers, Ripley and Maraniss, might want to verify the 1964 divorce documents – especially since a Feb. 2, 1961 marriage date for "Ann and Obama Sr." wasn't reported in any Honolulu Advertiser or Honolulu Star-Bulletin marriage lists from February 1961. Take the February 8, 1961 Star-Bulletin, which listed eighteen marriages from Feb. 3, Feb. 4, and Feb. 6, and no Feb. 2 marriages, and the February 7, 1961 Advertiser, which listed eleven marriages from Feb. 2 to 4, including two Feb. 2 marriages.

Barak Obama and Stanley Ann Dunham probably never even met each other much less married. There is only one person who claims to have ever seen them together. He is Neil Abacrombie who also claims he was present at BHO’s birth and often watched BHO play T-ball as a child. Both these statements have been proven to be lies.

Stanley Ann Dunham was not in Hawaii and was with friends in Washington in August 1961 shortly after BHO was supposedly born.

It has been said there is DNA evidence that Stanley Ann Dunham was not the mother BHO. The official biography is fraudulent. It is simply one lie after another. The documentation in most cases does not exist or has gone missing.

"Thanks to Obama's "biographers" and a combination of grossly incompetent, complicit, lazy and cowardly media, the full implications of Barack Obama's parents' "in name only" marriage will likely never be known.

FIFY

Everything about Obama is one sorry, embarrassing chapter in American history. EVERYTHING.

Thank you, I didn’t know that.

[Flotsam_Jetsome]

Ping!

[silverleaf]

were any of them intended to convince the INS they were anchor babies so deadbeat daddy’s “student” visa could be extended? In case you were wondering why BHO cooperated with the Dunhams in all this

imo the marriage was probably a kahuna blowing a conch shell over the libidinous couple as they consumed Mai Tais on a public beach on Maui

Whatever soebarkah might say about it is an automatic lie.

Everything about the guy is a scam, and Repubs do nothing but hide under their desk.

That sucks. Shouldn't we expect, yea, demand better of the person designated to lead the Republic?

I can't see how this can continue for another three years. We're either going to get taken out by some fluke meteoric event with global ramifications, or this dude's scam is going to come to a rapid and spectacular end. In any case, the current state of affairs is untenable.

Nobody will touch it because, immediately, they’ll be shouting:

“Racist! Racist!”

Why is it that you can readily find birth records of former presidents, marriage records of former president’s parents, education records of former presidents, college and/or school and youth chums of former presidents, but you can’t find ANY verifiable records for this president??????

[Flotsam_Jetsome]

Bless you, LucyT. I treasure you, and your willingness to continue tirelessly working this issue on these threads, despite the doubt and even often vitriolic reactions.

ok Frank Davis was a commie, I know that—but I am curious as to grandpa Dunham sent by FBI to spy on Davis and where did that go—because if grandpa dunham wasn’t an actual CP USA member he def was a fellow traveler.

So Obama doesn't have a legal daddy and he's a US citizen. Unless he was adopted by the Indonesian which makes him an Indonesian citizen.

It is too weird that in an era where I can't say or do anything without it being seen and listened to, nobody can get some Obama DNA and settle it. Nobody can get ahold of SAT scores or school transcripts.

I tend to believe this. If there had been a marriage, there would've been some pictures or memories, somewhere.

If Obama and Dunham were married on Maui in 1960 or 1961, it really makes no difference, then a visit to the Maui County clerk’s office ought to provide the best evidence. But, to the best of my knowledge, no one has ever been able to produce marriage records that are part of the public record.

The conclusion I come to is the same that any court would come to: no evidence/proof, no marriage.

There is some HUGE money from the dark behind this guy who is acting president...I believe there is an organization (global) of a very few individuals who’ve finally been able to take control of our political system and proceeded to decimate our entire government philosophy...

I don’t know if there is a way out of this mess we’ve been thrust into....

I’ve been seeing a fair bit of that today, but not nearly enough. Here’s hoping it goes viral!
