Sort of begs the obvious question now doesn't it ?
His mother sent him off to live with her parents in Hawaii, while she kept his half-siblings. It is said she did this because he loved and was influenced by his Indonesian stepfather. Possibly he regrets it now, in a vague, sentimental kind of way, but I imagine that for many years he was content treating her as she'd done him.

Perhaps the toughest question for the president was what he hopes his legacy will be. In a rambling 9-minute answer, Obama cited a range of factors.
Nine minutes is not an answer, it's a speech.
He said his "most important" legacy is fathering daughters Malia and Sasha, whom he said are "turning out to be wonderful young people."
Oh, that's nice.
As for his presidential legacy, Obama spoke more broadly, noting his response to the financial crisis of 2009; promotion of greater economic opportunity for all people; curbing Syria's chemical weapons; confronting Iran; encouraging peace between Israelis and Palestinians; and, being the first American president to visit Burma. He didn't mention the Affordable Care Act.
Perhaps he was the first AMPrez to visit Burma. Other than that, it's just a speech.

Like Bundy, he got caught having an offensive personal opinion.
Shadenfreude, anyone?

Why thank you - I'll have two scoops of schadenfreude (chocolate if you have any) with whipped cream and maybe a sprinkle of those delightful little toasted almonds on top.

Just listened to the entire released recording. Although he has a diversified "Old School" mindset of which bigotry is but a part, she was obviously leading him on.
He's an idiot. She's an extortionist or complicit therein.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
Old Frank did the best he could, but the kid was more interested in dagga than politics. His socialist enlightenment was to blossom a bit later.
