To WH57’s #434:
Let’s get the players straight.
Although we can’t prove all the facts that support the following analysis; we think this is a fair summary that fits many of the facts we do know. Far from conclusive but a reasonable analysis.
Roman was born to Anna Tout originally with the name of Barack Hussein Obama Jr.
Barack II, Barry, nominal President of the US really had nothing to do with Barack Hussein Obama Sr.
Senior first met Stanley Ann Dunham in Boston in 1962 where she was, as Ayers has her saying in Dreams, only acting as a glorified baby sitter Au Paire when she picked up Barry where he was born and took him to Boston to a home owned by the sister of Barry’s true father.
We don’t know for sure where Roman was born. I think the history of the birth at Coast Provincial General Hospital in Mombasa and Barry’s later day claims to have been born there is sufficient smoke coupled with the missionary related mother, to think Roman was born there so he (Roman) arrived by plane with his mother Anna Tout in Vancouver BC and they returned to Seattle in January of 1961.
They originally lived in the Martha Washington Home for Unwed Mothers, a well known established home in North Seattle which has now been closed for maybe thirty years +/-. Presumably for a short time in January of 1961.
When the home closed, a work party including a number of members of the family of the true mother of Barry (Barack II) made a point of participation in clean up at the home for the purpose of being sure there was nothing around the home that might identify the Obama identity to the home.
The true mother was never there—she delivered Barry at a hospital in Canada and immediately returned to her home and place of occupation in another country.
Roman and Anna Tout moved fairly shortly from the Home to a Boarding House on Capital Hill which was operated by Joseph Toutonghi and his wife Mary; we believe that Joseph’s brother John had a relationship with the owner of the house, I think as a partner or managing partner of the partnership that owned it. It doesn’t bother me that Mary might have said she baby sat the boy when her own child was 18 months, having been born in July of 59—in fact her daughter would have been 18 months after January until sometime in February when she became 19 months.
Now you have a woman named Anna Tout moving, in relatively desperate circumstances, a minority with a minority child, to a home operated by some people named Tout. I infer but cannot prove a prior relationship—I don’t think she just picked this boarding house out of a want ad. Others may differ.
It doesn’t have an obvious relationship to the fact that the Tout brothers were also cousin’s of Barack #II (Obama)’s true mother. Again, it is easy to speculate that the cousin relationship had something to do with the final outcome involving substitution of identities—John Toutonghi was a strong guy to whom people might have turned for help in sorting out a couple of unplanned and inconvenient pregnancies.
Gossip at the time of a subsequent John Toutonghi marriage was that he had been previously married to a woman who ran off after bearing him a son, John Jr. who is shown in Ancestry records as without a mother unlike John Sr.’s several later children.
OK, refiguring for Barry/Barrack II
if “Barrack II’s true mother” had had him in Canada, his citizenship/parentage status would have been :
Unmarried non-citizen mom,
U.S. citizen dad who didn’t acknowledge paternity,
kid born in Canada.
Barry would have British (mom) citizenship, since Barry’s real dad didn’t acknowledge paternity, and pass U.S. citizenship to Barry.
This disqualifies Barry/Barrack II from being President; he’d need —both— parents to be U.S. citizens at the time of his birth and be born on U.S. soil in order to be eligible.
