Schoolchildren whose formative years are spent in school in Indonesia do not learn the American Constitution.

Wasn’t Obambi living in Indonesia when he was 8 years old and unaware of the formation of the Weather Underground (Nov 1969, Chicago)?

He cites growing up in a racist America. Seem to me that he lived out of the country during the turbulent 60s. Was Indonesia also racist?

Not to put too fine a point on the matter, but the assertion that “life” is one of, indeed the first in rank of our inalienable rights, is stated in the Declaration of Independence, which is actually the founding document of the American Republic, and not in the Constitution, the purpose of which is to describe the manner in which the Republic is to be governed.
That being said, there is no reason to expect the mind of Obamessiah to have been steeped, in his childhood years, in the circumstances of the founding of the Great American Experiment, or in American civics. Even children born in the U. S. or one of its territories during the past half century or so are not very well taught in such matters.
