Methinks I've had a teensy-weensy epiphany. You may have mentioned this possibility once before. Thinking about the dates:

In this article we are told he went to Indonesia at the age of two.

On this document dated 27 days after the birthdate we are given for zero, he has crossed out the name of his wife and replaced the name with another...ANN S DUNHAM. There are no children.

I take ANN S DUNHAM is meant to be the student who was shown as living at the birth announcement address with the Dunhams ( and the Pratt family.) She was listed as ANN S OBAMA in the Polk. Clever little bit of footwork there...

And then we have the famous 'wife from whom he is separated living in the Philippines, may get a divorce' DATED APRIL 1964.

The divorce was finalized in March, 1964.

He KNEW the wife from whom he was separated had ALREADY gone to INDONESIA, he KNEW because that was the arrangement all along, he SAID PHILIPPINES because it wasn't to be known where she took that child. And there is no child mentioned on the document, because the child she took to Indonesia WASN'T HIS.

That's why you can't see her passport records prior to 1965, methinks. The divorce gave her custody, and off they went, she may have returned, zero didn't.

If the fake marriage for custody was also for using the Kenyan parentage (I would assume both reaons), why didn't BHO the Kenyan add a name under "children"? Hmm, he already did have an actual son, so... getting confused here.

So you think that perhaps mentioning the PI had nothing to do with Anna Obama's origins, or anything else, just to get others off the scent. Hmm. What about SAD's passport wherein it is mentioned something about going to the PI? Does that have anything to do with anything in this regard?

The article stating Barry went to SE Asia at age 2 is obviously erroneous because there is no corroboration of that and lots of corroboration for him being in HI with his mom from 1962 until 1967 when he actually went to Indonesia, IIRC.

In the August 1961 application for extension a variant of his wife's name, Ann S. Dunham, is used conclusively linking her to BHO Sr. There is no trace of any other Ann Dunham associated with BHO Sr. in HI in 1961.

In the April 27, 1964 McKean memo, he says “Harvard thinks he's married to someone in Kenya and someone in Honolulu...” above where the Philippines is mentioned. But the INS official doesn't note the implication of having more than one US wife at that point, but only in the handwritten portion when an additional wife in Cambridge, MA is suspected by Harvard (doubtless Ruth Baker whose parents were calling Harvard and INS to get BHO Sr. deported).

Although BHO Sr. was given notice of an impending divorce hearing and he signed the return receipt, there is no evidence that he received confirmation that the divorce was granted or filed, so he might not have received notice that he was divorced.

IMO, BHO Sr., known to dissemble, could have been trying to put off having INS contact Stanley Ann in HI by telling them she was in the Philippines. It is not clear whether Sr. actually is the source of the word “Philippines” in the written note, or if that came from. It could be from the file, from an interview with Sr. or from a Harvard official. The preceding sentence says “After alien stated he was married, he said they were separated and they might be getting a divorce.” It is not clear that the speculation about the wife in the Philippines was a continuation of BHO Sr. making statements.

In any case, there is zero documentary corroboration of any US citizen wife other then Stanley Ann Dunham that I have seen.
