From the article:

When Obama Sr. died in 1982, lawyers contacted anyone who might have claim to the estate. “Unlike my mum,” Obama tells his half-sister Auma in “Dreams,” “Ruth has all the documents needed to prove who Mark’s father was.”

Ruth obviously could produce a marriage license and a birth certificate for her son Mark. Although Obama alludes to finding his own “birth certificate” in “Dreams,” Ann Dunham apparently could not produce one that tied him to Obama Sr., this despite a potential payoff if she did.”

Bares repeating:

“Although Obama alludes to finding his own “birth certificate” in “Dreams,” Ann Dunham apparently could not produce one that tied him to Obama Sr., this despite a potential payoff if she did.”

Ruth obviously could produce a marriage license and a birth certificate for her son Mark. - Although 0bama alludes to finding his own “birth certificate” in “Dreams,” - Ann Dunham apparently could not produce one that tied him to 0bama Sr., this despite a potential payoff if she did.”

Bears repeating:
