“...So how did a young man who arrived in New York in early June 1981, without the price of a hotel room in his pocket, suddenly come up with the price of a round-the-world trip just a month later?...”
THAT is a good question. How DID someone 20 years old come up with that much cash to pay for that kind of trip? More and more enquiring minds wants, and needs, to know.

Why is it that so many find this easy to believe:
Unemployed college students Obama, Sr. & Stanley Ann (in her third trimester), flew to Kenya in 1961 just to say hi to the folks, when international air fares were controlled by a cartel and 2 round trip tickets would have required years of dedicated saving by the average American worker. Credit cards? No way. Cash up front only. Stanley Ann gave birth to Obama, Jr. in Kenya but all three evaded Customs and Immigration, leaving no record of their return anywhere, while Granny Dunham went to the Registrar in Hawaii and swore Obama was born in Hawaii, and they took her word for it, generating the birth listing in the Honolulu papers.
But they find this hard to believe:
Obama flew to Pakistan in 1981 in the era of cheap flights (the international air cartel had been broken by Sir Freddie Laker and others), when banks were handing out credit cards to teenagers, and Obama’s grandparents were prosperous enough to put him through the prestigious Punahou private school?
Why?
