Hadn’t seen this before - dropping in for archiving
Interview in 1995 after publication of Dreams

....The result was his book “Dreams From My Father,” first published in 1995. That’s when Eye on Books talked with him.

Obama: I think what was toughest was writing honestly and truthfully about the suspicions and hurts and failings of the people closest to me, and writing about those same failings and disappointments and blind spots in myself. I think whenever we talk about race there are all kinds of issues we’d like to skirt. You know, I tell the story – just to take one of the clearest examples – of my grandmother, who loves me dearly and has made all kinds of sacrifices on my behalf, expressing at one point when I was a teenager her fear of black men on the streets. To discuss that honestly, and to discuss how that felt, to discuss how my grandmother felt, and then to be able to arrive at some sort of peace with that, some greater understanding and some forgiveness, I think was probably the most difficult part of writing it.

he was throwing g’ma under the bus, even back then

another telling quote “That my individual salvation is not going to come about without a collective salvation for the country.

Unfortunately, I think that recognition requires that we make sacrifices, and this country has not always been willing to make the sacrifices necessary to bring about a new day and a new age.”

Michelle isn’t happy?

[LucyT]

Thank you, Fred Nerks. I would have missed the thread, otherwise.

It’s obvious from those photos Michelle is a very unhappy woman, wonder if their marriage is falling apart... and isn’t it interesting obamba met with Bobby Titcomb in Hawaii.

[Chief Engineer]

From reading through the comments accompanying the various stories of the Hawaii visit the rumor did surface of Bobby Titcomb’s ‘sexual orientation’ and there was even a posting to a link on YouTube from the day Obama, Orme and Titcomb went body surfing. Take from that what you will but it is interesting that Titcomb is listed as a commercial fisherman and part - time airline attendant, both excellent ways to facillitate the movement of drugs.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., second from right, walks with Bobby Titcomb, second from left, and Greg Orme right after throwing a lei in the Pacific Ocean at the point where he scattered his mother's ashes in Honolulu, Hawaii, Thursday, Aug. 14, 2008.

Politicians who talk about "making sacrifices" are never in the line of fire themselves. The sacrifices are imposed by an iron fisted government upon the people. That's not the kind of people you ever want in a position of power.

>>>>As we say above, the fact that they haven't done that is testimony to the fact that one of two conditions exists: Either they don't have that much; or, there is something else in the record they don't want you to see because it says he was born in Kenya.

I wouldn't rule out a recently printed newspaper page either David. Obama is connected or even prominent with some heavy hitting activism groups. Some of the tools used by activism groups are making newspaper articles as needed to further propaganda. I will be more satisfied with these sudden appearance of announcements when a microfich copy appears.

[Fred Nerks]

“...I will be more satisfied with these sudden appearance of announcements when a microfich copy appears.”

May I echo that sentiment?

There’s something just too darned cute and sweet about this statement:

“A research librarian at the Hawaii State Library just told me she will email me a copy of BOH’s birth announcement. She stated someone else had asked for that info recently and still had it readily available in her folder...”

[Calpernia]

What’s the matter. Don’t you keep folders of birth announcements handy?

Find some of the articles written by Susan Essoyan she was supposed to be reporting on education but seems to have written quite a bit about Obama as well.

One thing I do find curious is that “The Honolulu Star - Bulletin “ is specifically mentioned by Obama in his first book as being the paper in which the interview with his father was published, why have they not republished parts of the article like “The Honolulu Advertiser” did? Even with the sale of “The Star - Bulletin” to Canadian interests in 1996 they would still retain their archives wouldn’t they?

Hefty had recently completed a sabbatical in Kenya, where she taught as part of an educational advisory team appointed by the U.S. Agency for International Development.

Later, to Barry’s dismay, Hefty invited his father to give a talk to the class during a visit to Hawaii. But the senior Obama’s stories of tribal life and Kenyans’ struggle to free themselves of colonial rule entranced the students, replacing their early derision with admiration...

(A little bit of african black nationalism in the classroom lapped up by students and their anti-colonial teacher?)

If his mother was a US citizen, then he is.

Not true, there were rules at the time, and I doubt she met the legal requirements at the time.
