Single-handedly means on one's own without assistance. Clearly didn't happen in Obama's case.

Let's review... the Newsweek claim, written by Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Stacy Schiff :
Quote:
"As of 1973 Ann Soetoro was singlehandedly raising two biracial children, of different fathers, while attempting both to support them and make her own way through graduate school."
Obama's Mother Ann Dunham Shaped His Success - Newsweek

Yet not only did Obama's mother file JOINT Hawaii and Federal income tax returns with her husband Lolo Soetoro for 1973 (meaning she wasn't raising anyone single-handedly), they also didn't claim minor child Barry/Barack as a dependent. Meaning someone else paid more for his support than she/they did and was therefore entitled to take him as a deduction on their tax returns.

The BS about Obama's mother raising him single-handedly in 1973 is a lie. What else about Obama's marketed life narrative is a lie? Some of it? All of it?
