He started the drugs in high school and it seems I read that he was a dealer.
His birth father left when Obama was 4 I think.
I agree. If you read ‘Dreams From My Father’, it is obvious he has huge issues with his family. He resolved them by abandoning his white family and embracing his black Kenyan extended family.
He didn’t visit his Mom to help her in her final days. When he recently vacationed in Hawaii, after not seeing his white grandmother for 19 months, he visited her - with some campaign aides, for a bit over one hour, without his wife or daughters. He made no further attempts to see her.
He had a miserable childhood brought about by a miserable excuse for a mother. His anger turned to hatred of his white family. He only uses them as props now for his campaign.
3 ER shifts went by before someone on the 4th shift finally noticed him.
According to the story, it wasn’t even a hospital worker who noticed him. It was another ER patient that told staff to look at him- on two different occasions.

His Kenyan father left not long after Obama was born. He was still an infant. Obama’s mother married Soetero in Hawaii. You are fixated on the Islamic connection. I am more concerned about the communist/socialistic, anti-establishment influence of Ayers, Dohrn, New Party, etc., which are more relevant if Obama becomes the President.
Me too -- he's just another smary politician doing a poor Clinton imitation -- remember when he was caught yukking it up at Ron Brown's funeral, then saw the camera and instantly turned on the waterworks with down-turned lip?
I thought his grandfather was a furniture salesman.
The ‘damaged goods’ part of Obama really concerns me.
We went thru 8 years of a similarly psychologically damaged POTUS and I do not look forward to another 4 or 8. I wish these men would grow up on their own time and not drag the nation through it.
ahhh, the Ford foundation, another of ACORNS Sponsors. I wonder if Obama “organized” those donations too. It appears Obama had no shortage of exposure to Marxist ideology his entire life, and no doubt understood it well. Islam’s totalitarian format would be very appealing to him.
Ok, got a question. Pakistan is notorious for NOT allowing people into the country that are not muslim. So, if Obama and his mother are not or were not muslim, then how is it that he lived there for 5 years and Obama visited her there for a couple of months???
That should be SHE lived there for 5 years, not he, but he did visit for a couple of months.
It's all related. being raised with a lot of Islamic influence would make him more susceptible to the communist/socialistic- anti- establishment influence of Ayers, Dohrn, etc. Especially it appears, since his own mother was a ultra lefty.
NO doubt Obama knew all about Ayers before he even met him.
His grandfather was a furniture salesman, and, his grandmother was a VP at a bank - from Wikipedia:
Madelyn and Stanley then moved to Hawaii, where he found a better furniture store opportunity. She started working at the Bank of Hawaii in 1960 and was promoted to be one of the first female bank vice presidents in 1970.[3] In 1970s Honolulu, both women and the minority white population were routinely the target of discrimination.[4]
This is also from the same entry (don’t recall seeing this before - perhaps 0bama’s Kenyan grandfather had some influence on him w white people?):
Ann attended the University of Hawaii and while she was there she met Barack Obama, Sr. a graduate student from Kenya. Both Dunhams were upset when their daughter married Obama, particularly after receiving a long, angry letter from the graduate student’s father in Kenya who “didn’t want the Obama blood sullied by a white woman.”[8] The Dunhams adapted, however. Madelyn Dunham was quoted as saying, “I am a little dubious of the things that people from foreign countries tell me.”[12]

Communism and Islam don’t mix.
I stepped in and dealt with the insurer of my 94-year old neighbor, of whom I am no relation. Insurer didn’t have a problem with that. BH0 crossing hyperbole into untruth, as usual.
Read the writings of Ayers, Wright et al" they are the same - unresolved issues, they project onto others instead of dealing with them themselves. Instead of dealing with the feelings that arise from accepting life as it is, and not as one thinks it ought to be; they blame others for life/society/people not being as they think it should be. As with so many who claim the victim position; they themselves are the bullies.
We are going to be governed by a bunch of immature co-dependants, who are going to radically screw things up, instead of dealing with their own issues.. It ain't going to be pretty.
A very wise man said to me once that denial is the root of all evil. I now see how true that is.
