In newly discovered letters, President Obamas Kenyan father made no mention of his son, raising further doubt about the personal narrative that helped put Obama on a rapid path to the White House.
The New York Times published six letters from a collection of 24 written by Barack Hussein Obama Sr. that were discovered recently in an archives box at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem.
The letters dated after Feb. 2, 1961 the earliest date attributed to the Kenyans marriage to Ann Dunham made no mention of Dunham or their son, the future president, which would have been to his advantage in his desperate effort, as the letters show, to obtain funding for his studies.
Barack Obama Jr.s path to the White House began when he famously introduced himself to the world at the Democratic National Convention in 2004 as the product of an improbable love between a Kansas girl and a Kenyan goat herder.
Elsewhere, Obama has insisted that the love endured even when his father had to leave a wife and a 2-year-old child behind to pursue dreams at Harvard. In his autobiography, Obama indicated that if only Harvard would have offered enough money to support all three of them, as another school did, they could have stayed together.

There are enough little factoids to make it appear factual to people who have NO clue, and don’t WANT a clue.
Like, he did go to Punahou, did live in Honolulu with the Dunhams, did go to Occidental, as examples. Of course, parents, place of birth, nationality, actual name and nationality are all different.
How long will it take to fumigate the place after the vulgarians leave?
Hard to believe.
Welcome home FRiend.
Sounds to me like he’s referring to another person named Michael, not his wife.
His sister is named Maya. Easy mistake, just a slip of the tongue.
There’s plenty of serious criticism that needs to be discussed. This is silly.
Please add me. Thank you.
:-)
Thank you. There really isn’t any place like Fr because of some many great PEOPLE.
Will do!
It’s a very narrow topic ping list. Though I do have a feeling it will be a bit busier in the coming months, especially after Jan.20 2017.
Thank you!
anyone who cares might find this reprint of an archived article from 2008 posted by Brown Deer of interest:

it’s an interesting opportunity to sift some wheat from the chaff.
So Dunham’s father is not his grandfather? It’s one thing to sensibly question Obama’s background, and quite another to get ridiculous.
I meant 0bola’s so-called grandfather Dunham is not related to him.
Apparently you somehow missed reading the numerous, voluminous, well researched threads discussing 0bola’s background and how it is entirely fraudulent.
Ridiculous?
What’s ridiculous is swallowing propaganda whole, blindly believing the crapswill thugocracy dishes out.
Placemarking a few....
You mean the Philippines President was accurate in what he called Obama?

— your comment -—”Everything about the Dunham family is suspect.”
Just popping this info in here for the record. The author of this blog was still identifying Dunham as SHIRLEY ANN from genealogy search engines dated 02/2007 and again a comment from another poster is still locating SHIRLEY ANN 10/2008 and no marriage certificate for grandparents and more—

I will stand on the source in the comments section that Ann Dunham was born in Wichita and reared in ElDorado. Shes someone I would have liked to have known.
The following material on the immediate ancestry of Barack Obama should not be considered either exhaustive or authoritative, but rather as a first draft. Stay tuned for more as it unfolds.
P.S. Barack says his mother was born in a small town in Kansas. I have to think that must be Augusta. Wichita is small by comparison to a lot of cities, but I think he must be referring to Augusta. I dont know why he doesnt come out and say it.

Senator Obamas mother was born in Wichita, KS but she was raised in Butler County, presumably in Eldorado, KS.

I am curious to hear more about Ann Durans battle with ovarian cancer. Did she undergo chemo? What stage cancer did she have? Was her son supportive???

HI, I see some questions about Obama, everything that is posted in the comments is info that was put into computer references in 2008, 1999 or 1998. Ive been doing research on Mr. Obamas family for the last 2 months. Researching is my job and hobby. I believe in public records and certainly nothing on the computer. Did you know anyone can change the information on the computer, just register and sign-in. I have seen information change almost daily on Mr. Obamas family. And it seems there is very little information given from him that can be actually proven by a birth, marriage, death or etc. document from a government source, assuming that he is an American Citizen.
All I wanted to know was why he never talks about his Mother. He never mentioned anything about her until recently, very recently. And from what I found through the computer was all established in 1998 or 1999. Once he became a public officer and its info disclosed by HIM. This is what I have: now his Mothers name is Shirley or Stanley, Ann Dunham (what happened to Obama?)- depends where you get it from within the Obama camp. I could not find anything under the last name Obama with Ann, Shirley or Stanley Ann. Obamas grandfather did not marry his grandmother, Madeline Lee Payne. Madeline Lee Payne was born in Sedgewick County, Kansas. Mr. Dunham married Clara Katherine Benedict and had a son Earnest Richard Dunham. This the only information from public records on the names given out by Mr. Obama, Jr.
Mr. Obama, Sr., had three wives in Africa when he had Jr. The pictures of Barack with his Mother Shirley Ann, dont match the pictures of Stanley Ann Durnham. But then the picture of Barack with his grandfather dont match pictures of Barack with his step-sister in Indonesia. It was stated by the step-sister earlier this month, that when her father left she sent Jr. back to Kansas as she simply could not take care of him by herself. However, he does now look very much like his grandfather. But its a big change in his appearance from earlier pictures. Like Michael Jackson change. I saw the picture of him with his grandfather at the beach, I also saw him with his grandfather and grandmother altogether, they look like different people when you put ALL the pictures side by side.
WHAT IS THE BIG SECRET. The genealogyxxxxxx.com is the site that you can update the info once you register and sign-in. Just like the WhitePages-US Search-Intell. Most of the info is tampered with. Heck I looked up myself and they had all this crazy info. Show me PUBLIC RECORDS DOCUMENTS. Who is Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.? This is just a few things I was reesarching, the info kept changing. I started after Hillary lost then picked up in Sept. I also went through his tax return, the one that hes amending now that he has all this money. Whatever money these politicians collect, becomes THEIR MONEY, not the partys money. I didnt know that. Hes now very wealthy. I wish he would say that all the benefits given out would go to AMERICAN CITIZENS ONLY. Im tired of all the medical benefits being given out to non-American citizens for free. I cant get insurance because of a pre-existing condition. But people here on visas are getting free medicine and medical care. Now Im venting. Would be interested if any has seen any actual documents regarding Mr. Obama.
