Tom Shachtman, working in the African-American Students Foundation (aasf) papers for a book on the airlifts, has found that the elder Obama came in 1959 with support from the aasf but appears to have been routed a different way as he made his way to the University of Hawaii.

Guessing. He kept the price of the airfare and went by ship? Remember that welcoming committee that appeared to be on a wharf with sailors? The one in which I was so certain Stanley Armour Dunham was part of the crowd?

Comparing #7,179 and #7,187, the hairline is identical in both photos. Ears, too. Stanley Armour Dunham was part of the welcoming committee for Obama, Senior in 1959.
