Please show me a source for the claim Obama’s sister made. I doubt there is one, because I think someone remembered the interview incorrectly.

I have heard that he was called Barry before Columbia and Barack after, but never that he changed last names. He obviously went by Barry Obama from 5th grade through high school, as evidenced by several yearbooks, that can be found easily online. Surely someone at one of his schools would have said something if he went by Barry Soetoro. Not one person has stepped forward to say he used a different name.

I am not foisting incorrect assertions onto the record, so please stop with the insults. I have provided evidence for my claim that he was known as Barry Obama in High School. You have provided zero evidence except for an unsupported claim by someone saying they heard Obama’s sister say it.

I did not insult you. I pointed out that your claim was not logical, and supported my point by example. The logic speaks for itself, but if you need reference, try Matesian Logic.

The interview claim was not mine, but I grant that my point is dependent on a fact of her having said what was represented.

You're showing impertinence by foisting this statement as well, in light of the clear evidentiary reference to the sister's CNN interview. If this turns out to be substantially correct, you will have been shown in at least twice to be completely counterproductive to discussion of this issue. People will rightly suspect you're simply an Obot troll.
