I trust you noticed how poorly written and full of speculation and innuendo that housing article is? They ran with the address listed in the birth announcement without too much investigation. However they made a BIG mistake when they said that Madelyn and Stanley lived in apt 110 1427 Alexander St in 1963. We have a Freeper who has said that when he attended UH at Manoa in 1960-61 he knew Madelyn and Stanley and they were living at 2277 Kamehameha Ave. In Jr’s own words about his father’s visit in 1971 he wrote:” that they took short walking tours past the private landmarks of a family...where he was shown my grandparents’ first house in Hawaii, before the one on University Ave., a house I had never known.” (p.39) When the paper mentions the apt on Alexander St. it dates the time when Ann and Jr returned to HI from WA state. Ann and Jr lived in that apartment in early 1963 which her parents had rented for her until she moved in with her parents at the house on Kamehameha Ave when she registered at UH at Manoa for spring 1963 classes. Jr didn’t remember the house on Kamehameha Ave because he was too young.
Your post #1312 noted and thank you for your reply. I would inform for others, the housing article that I indicated was on "Barack Obamba's Boyhood Homes" via Google.
I would suppose that the journalist is compelled to deliver what is more like a chamber of commerce introduction for tourists. Few journalists in Honolulu would dare to disturb the "dream". I would say that it does give some idea of the residences- if lived in.
Since we are on the subject of radio, I heard on Bill Cunningham's show tonight that on "the third hour" which just after 12 midnight EST, he will have on Phillip J Berg, the lawyer talking about his writ of certiorari concerning the President-elect's eligibility. Bill is on 325 affiliates and WLW also Premier Radio.
Bill emphatically said "it ain't gonna happen" with regard to the success of Berg's lawsuit. Still, he is putting the man on- that counts for a lot in my book. I will be listening all ears in just about 25 minutes from now.
