I had not read that information about Obama’s Kenyan grandmother. Did she come to DC by way of an invitation or did she just show up? If I understand this correctly the woman wandered around DC on inauguration day with no place to go. Surreal.
Did it get any play with the press at all?

From what I read inauguration week, the grandmother flew to DC without any help from her dear grandson, and was not allowed to be anywhere near any festivities that would have garnered her any media attention. It got very little press coverage, but there were a few articles posted on FR. The really boorish thing about it is, Zero wrote about this grandmother using endearing terms in one of his books, and when the rubber hit the road and she came to celebrate his victory, he snubbed her.
