Doesn't make sense.
But, but.... OMG, better send a team of crack investigators to clear this up. Then there's this, Obama's book may have lied

Who's got the book?
Mystery solved.

I do not have the book but I was able to see pg 401 using googlebooks. Pg 401 has nothing - but absolutely NOTHING to do with Barack or Michelle. The first complete sentence on p 401 is "But the Luo also felt the white man's rule." The entire narrative has to do with is ancestors in Kenya.

I also did a keyword search for "October" and nothing came up.

The link that bluesjuke posted is - pardon me - complete crap: askville.amazon.com where anyone with internet access can post an answer to a question. Even worse than wiki and probably not as reliable as yahoo answers.

I actually think you are correct.. Might be another one of those internet lies because the book doesnt say anything about their anniversary, nor mentions October at all.

I mean for gods sakes children, does it matter if its the 3rd, or the 20th? Of course not, but I find the non stop excuse making of the left histerical.
Exactly where in his book does he give his wedding date? The email circulating with this latest Obama "scandal" says it's on page 401 and I'm sure not seeing anything remotely about a wedding on page 401 or the two pages before or after that. My copy has not photographs.

They later married, and had two daughters,

You and the sources you believe just like to make up crap and call it fact---anything you can to make Obama look bad.
