It seems clear that this statement is timed with his efforts to capture the Jewish vote. Is that just coincidence? I saw a quote from 2002 where BHO made the same statement but stated it was his grandfather, not uncle.
I would be hesistant to combine the two figures. He says that his grandfather enlisted immediately after Pearl Harbor.
So what was his grandfather’s name (mother’s father, his father’s father was a Catholic in Kenya who converted to Islam).
any links where he actually said his grandfather liberated a camp???
I think it was a great uncle.
