“I agree with everything in your post, except for this last paragraph. He has NO form N550!!!”

Obama left Indonesia as an Indonesian National and came to America as a refugee. An American Refugee Assistance Organization located in Connecticut helped Obama clear customs and transition back to America.

Remember, Obama came back to America alone and his grandmother was named as his legal guardian. In the mid-70’s, the Federal Government passed a law requiring AFDC recipients to have an SSN to continue receiving benefits.

The Connecticut Refugee Assistance Organization applied for Obama’s SSN on his behalf so his grandmother could continue to receive AFDC benefits for him; thus, the Connecticut SSN.

In the early 80’s, Obama transitioned from a Greencard holding legal immigrant to become a Naturalized American citizen.

That's a documented fact or a speculation based on similar cases?

Your "theory" does NOT match SS's procedures of issuing valid SS#!

The SSA is adamant that numbers are never recycled and likely won't be for the foreseeable future. Given the nine-digit format, there are a hair under 1 billion possible permutations, taking into account that numbers like 000-00-0000 and other oddities aren't distributed. (An elaborate mathematical guesstimate here quotes the precise figure as 988,911,099.) So far, the SSA has doled out roughly 400 million numbers. Population researchers calculate that roughly 300 million people will require new Social Security numbers by the year 2050—about 230 million native births plus 68 million immigrants, give or take 50 million all told. Barring unforeseen circumstances, such as a meteor strike or cloning boom, the current enumeration system should last nearly another century.

We know he has a SS# belonged to a citizen of CT, but NOT to Barry Soetoro!!

What are your sources for the naturalization and the other stuff about Toot Dunham's guardianship, etc.!!!
