The interesting thing about Obama's birth certificate

is that his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, apparently first signed her name "Ann Dunham Obama" and then added Stanley in parentheses up above. 

In the excerpt of Janny Scott's new book about Obama's mother published in last Sunday's New York Times Magazine, Obama had this to say:

“She was a very strong person in her own way,” Obama said, when I asked about Ann’s limitations as a mother. “Resilient, able to bounce back from setbacks, persistent — the fact that she ended up finishing her dissertation. But despite all those strengths, she was not a well-organized person. And that disorganization, you know, spilled over.

Yeah, maybe a little..or else Mrs. Dunham Obama just did not like her first name. And oh yes, she was 18 years old.

Nice strong signature, btw. Call the French analysts!
