What about that driving record indicates to you that the 1996 date represents when the record was first created? The column label is "CONT. LIC. DATE." I can't say for certain exactly what that stands for, but the most probable meaning is "Continuous License Date." I can't immediately think of any meaning of "CONT." that implies "first."
Obama first moved to Chicago in 1985. Licenses in Illinois last until your fourth birthday, so his first license would have expired in 1988. Then again in 1992 and 1996. See how the date given is "08/19/96"? Fifteen days AFTER his birthday? If that column means what I'm guessing it means, Obama's license ran out on his birthday, he simply didn't have a valid license for 15 days, and the "continuous" clock started running again when he obtained a new valid license.
After all, his 1992 Illinois marriage license gives his name as "Barack Hussein Obama."
Doesn’t Orly Taitz have to have her response on fine in to Judge Land today? Haven’t heard anything on that.
