Since his name is Barack Hussein Obama, II, rather than Jr., his parents were not married at the time of his birth. Where did you come up with that cockamamie idea?
Granted "II" is a bit more pretentious than "Jr" but in no way does it indicate illegitimacy.

According to Miss Manners, 2nd indicates that the child is named after an older relative who is not his father. I expect Obama’s parents just made a mistake, natural enough since his father was not American.
