Stanley Ann Dunham, better known as President Barack Obama's mother, passed away in 1995 before seeing her son become the most powerful man in the world.
In this weekend's New York Times Magazine, Dunham gets a long profile adapted from Janny Scott's forthcoming book, A Singular Woman: The Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mother.
The article paints a portrait of a complex woman who traveled to Indonesia with her second husband, battled the customs while raising her son and new daughter, and eventually returned to Hawaii. As Scott writes, "To describe Dunham as a white woman from Kansas turns out to be about as illuminating as describing her son as a politician who likes golf."
The President described his mother as "single constant in my life."

1. Obama claimed his mother was on food stamps at one point in her life. Where’s the public record on this?
2. According to Hawaiian law any person with a common ancestor with Barry can request Obama’s BC. George looks like he could use the money...
From what I can tell, she was the devil’s concubine. What else do you need to know?
No he looks too much like her.
He's right. Now if you describe Barry as a "radical leftist politician who likes golf," you'd pretty much have him nailed.
I read she had a PhD and worked for the CIA implementing microfinance in Indonesia and other countries...one of which was Pakistan. It appears to be the same program Soros, Jeffrey Sachs, Joe Stiglitz et al outlined and had implemented in the Balkans. They’ve got the same programs here as well in Shorebank etc., despite the fact that the program doesn’t work.
Now wouldn't that be a hoot?
“How do you give up USA citizenship? Go to the embassy of the country you are in.”
I doubt a person would be able to keep their job at an American Embassy if they were to renounce their US citizenship.
She started in Washington in September. Bam-Bam was born in August
Too bad some rich conservative doesn't offer George some serious $$$ to do just that. (Maybe we should take up a collection.) Considering brother "We Are Our Brothers' Keepers" Barry hasn't given him dime one
