A weird (minor??) mis-statement of fact in Obama's official biography.

In fact, the INS file makes it pretty clear the British would not confirm any marriage existed.

NONSENSE! The files make it very clear that Barack Hussein Obama had multiple wives!

[Will Escott]

The INS file makes it perfectly clear that he was believed to have multiple wives. It does not make it clear that he legally did. Morally he certainly did.

[Brown Deer]

So STOP spouting the false statements!

[Will Escott]

He was a sleazeball.

[Will Escott]

I haven’t made a false statement. Bigamy is a crime in the USA, Britain and Kenya. To prove bigamy you must prove beyond reasonable doubt that an individual is legally married to two, or more people, at the same time. The INS file shows that they couldn’t prove that. They believed he was, or might be, but they couldn’t prove it.

[Brown Deer]

The INS file shows that they couldn’t prove that.

IT DOESN'T.

I haven’t made a false statement.

SO YOU HAVE.

[Will Escott]

Where does it show that they could?

Why are you so keen to prove Stanley Ann Dunham and Barack Obama, Sr, weren’t married?

[Will Escott]

BTW, I’m not convinced that they were, legally. I just don’t buy the bigamy argument.

I'm not sure where you're linking this to Wiki.

Try the first word of the second paragraph. The poster's "linking," not mine. The only point is that if you are going to call the President (respect the office, not the _resident) a liar, base it upon an authoritative source. Then let the fur fly where it may.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive.

As if this admin can tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

There’s another error. Stanley Ann Dunham wasn’t raised in Kansas. Her family lived in Kansas, Texas, California, New York State and Washington State during her childhood. Those are the places we have good evidence for. There might have been others.

I knew about Kansas, Washington, and Hawaii. And California checks out.

So does Texas (and Oklahoma). It was that immediate postwar period when people were moving around a lot.

It's hard to say just where she was raised, though she did go to high school in Washington State. But where are you getting New York State from?

[bgill]

Anyway Stanley Ann got her own date of marriage to Lolo wrong, at least once.

And if the March 5, '64 date was true, the marriage wasn't legal. The divorce from Sr. was heard on that date but the decree clearly states it is not final until it is signed by the Judge (he signed on the 20th) and it is filed. Just another ooops in the usurper's history.

[Brown Deer]

You’ve never seen the May 1943 USO photo op with the British soldiers? They were living 1829 South Salina Street in Syracuse.

[Will Escott]

Syracuse and Rochester, New York, newspapers 1943. Try “The Post Standard”, I think. Stanley Armour Dunham was stationed at the USAAF airbase there. There was an article. I was looking for a relative in the Canadian airforce on a genealogy site. The name sprang out at me. Plenty of people must have seen it.

[bgill]

Stanley Ann is wearing what is reported to be a College Notre-Dame de Jamhoura (Lebanon) school uniform. I've yet to see it confirmed with school insignia.

[Will Escott]

Yeah, I noticed that. Her divorce papers from Lolo Soetoro are iffy too.

[Will Escott]

Problem is that was a boys only school.

[bgill]

There was a HI marriage index that listed Sr. and Ann. Don’t know if it was deemed true or false.

[bgill]

Welcome to the eligibility threads.

[Will Escott]

I thank you.

Incidentally, I’d have felt chummy’s collar with the greatest of pleasure if I’d been around in 1961. But then I’d have been in deep shit with the DPP and the FO.
