Barack’s mother was not able to earn enough money working in Indonesia to support Barack in Hawaii, so Barack’s grandmother assumed guardianship of Barack and requested Aid for Families with Dependent Children.
In 1975, the Federal law was amended and required all recipients of AFDC administered through the various states to obtain a SSN through the Social Security Administration.
As an Indonesian National refugee, Barack’s American Resettlement Organization (ARO), located in Connecticut, used Barack’s I-94 to apply to SSA on Barack’s behalf for a SSN. Thus, the reason Barack’s SSN begins with 042, the three digits indicating a Connecicut return address.
During my lifetime, (1951-1983) I have had a plethora of I-94s, yet I am still NOT eligible to run for President of the United States???
Sven,
Really interesting stuff!
Do you have a link for this information?
alright Sven, is this true? Sources?
How did Obie get admitted to the US as an Indonesia Refugee if his mother stayed in Indonesia? What would qualify him as a refugee? Economic hardship is not enough of a reason. Where are you getting your ideas from?
Sven..
Good one.... I’m sure a woman employed as a bank manager would really feel herself eligible for AFDC. :)
Sounds plausible; but why was he assigned a number that belonged to a guy born in 1890? I am not so concerned about how he got a number as how he got that particular number. The fact that these things were going on that long ago lends credence to the “Manchurian Candidate” theory.
