I believe there is a connection somewhere in Indonesia and Barry just as there is a connection in Indonesia with the Clintons and Soros.
There is more than meets the eye here.
” believe there is a connection somewhere in Indonesia and Barry “
Are you aware that Barry and Michelle moved to Bali, Indonesia for several months in the early years of the Clinton administration ?
His sister Maya Soetero Ng told the NYT in 2008 that the Obamas went there so Barry could find a place without a phone to finish his book.

Barry at the time was a nobody- a community organizer with a law degree.
He had already missed his first deadline , despite taking an advance.
Cell phones were rare and Blackberrys were non existent.
Apparently, the Obamas didn’t realize that you could take the land line off the hook, if you didn’t want to be disturbed.
Some posters think he went to Indonesia because his mother was living there at the time.
I have reservations about that theory because his sister didn’t mention their mother and Barry had a lot of issues with his mother.
I saw on one Indonesian blog that the Obamas had lived in Indonesia for over a year
,but, I couldn’t source it further.
When Obama sang the Muslim call to prayer in pitch perfect Arabic to Nickolas Kristoff of the NYT ,
Kristoff wrote as if Barry remembered it from his childhood as a “ Jakarta street kid.”
Barry apparently didn’t volunteer his more recent Indonesian ex pat days.
Bali, Indonesia is majority Hindu, but, still has a large Muslim population and has 600 mosques.
And who knows if Bali was even the destination-just what he told his sister.
