Obama’s relatively modest background?

Can we do fact check and set the record straight?

Obama was raised in an upper class family. After his mother dumped him with grandma, he went to the most exclusive boarding school in Hawaii. His grandma was a bank vice-president who earned a good living.

He went to two Ivy League universities. He is part of the cultural/social/liberal political elite.

To listen to them, you would swear that Obama struggled to escapte the ghetto and do something with his life. The fact is, he has been upper class by any measure during his life. Can we distribute the facts so that these lies are countered???????

You’re right, and it really burned up the media that they couldn’t pretend he was descended from slaves. He has much more in common with “white America” than the urban blacks, though he plays the part to the hilt.
