Hey, I didn't go along with the birth certificate thing, it just seemed like a non-starter.
Frankly, I don't even really care if the social security number in question was from a pool from Connecticut. I'm sure that kind of anamoly has happened before...after all people working at SSN adminsitration are civil servants, not rocket scientists. They make mistakes all the time. (HOWEVER IF it's true that the number belonged to a dead person, that WOULD be a big deal, and having two social security numbers - unless you're in the witness protection program - is fraud, as far as I know)
I know that I had to have a social security number from the age of 16, when I got my first real summer job. I needed an SSN when I applied for a Driver's Learner's Permit the same year. I definitely needed an SSN to apply for college as well as loans.
How did Obama, who is just about my age, get through all of those same landmarks in the late 1970s without a social security number? What was he using for a SSN before then?
And what about that Selective Service stuff? Why did Obama he say he applied in 1979, when the form obtained through FOIA clearly says 1980? I know it's only a year difference, but why lie about something when you don't have to? That's just weird to me
This is more troubling to me than the other issues, I can't explain why.
