Presidential hopeful Barack Hussein Obama is no stranger to Pakistan, we hear. For one trip, Obama shared a dorm with various Pakistanis as an undergraduate at Columbia university in New York and was close friends with at least two Karachi-ites from famous Sindhi families. He went to Pakistan in 1981 with his roommates.

For the second trip, he traveled to Sindh on a hunting expedition and went on shikar in Jacobabad. He was a guest, it is said, of the current caretaker prime minister and the latter claims that he is still in touch with him. Obama came to Pakistan when he was merely a state senator, more than a decade ago and not a full blown senator in the US Senate.

If that's bad, I'm in trouble. I had a Pakistani roommate.
