He's hiding the fact that his Kenyan father was Muslim and he's not using his full name: Barack Hussein Obama. The biography I failed to mention religion.
Mo and I have come across a lot of factual information about him, but she is the one who's saving it. I have never learned how to keep a proper filing system.
He refers to himself as a black man --- his mother was white --- and as a champion of the people. Penned a book (ala JFK) and his ambition is insatiable.
He spent 2 years in a Muslim school and 2 years in a Catholic school. As a teen, he did cocaine and marijuana. He still keeps in constant contact with his Muslim family - uncle, aunt, father, etc. via e-mail and personal visits. He's a hero in their village for becoming an American Senator.
