No longer a blank slate: Obama, 4 years later
By JERRY SCHWARTZ, Associated Press 1 day ago
Nearly four years after Barack Obama was elected to the most powerful office in the most powerful country in the world, the question remains: Who is he?
He seemed to come out of nowhere. He had served seven years in the Illinois Senate, and less than four years in the U.S. Senate a meager political resume, augmented by a stirring speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention.
His was an exotic story, at least by the standards of the 42 white men who preceded him in office. Son of a black African and white Kansan, born in Hawaii, raised there and in Indonesia, he was something new, and America seemed ready for him. He won almost 9.5 million votes more than John McCain.

This should have barf alert in the title!!
Gee, what a surprise. If these clown reporters did their job four years ago, they wouldn’t be wondering who Barack Obama is today.
If Obama told the truth about himself for five minutes, he would never be president.
Jerry. You now who he is don’t up. He is the MESSIAH you socialist drones have been waiting for.
This pic makes him look like Alister Overeem (sp?)
Sangfroid means cold-blooded.
Apt title, although incorrect, as we know him to be a loser. Barf stuff by this author, as nothing is known for sure about the imposter. On a chalkboard, nothing sticks, is easily erased and replaced by other scriblings, and you can never be sure what will be wriiten next and quickly erased. He's not just a blank slate, Obama is an eraser-head, erasing his past lest we learn about this loser.
Zippy has had absolutely everything handed to him-———except an identity.
Not remarkable since he's a totally clueless character with others making the hard decisions while he's on the back nine or on the campaign trail.
FTA...”His was an exotic story, at least by the standards of the 42 white men who preceded him in office.”

I wonder which of the FORTY-THREE Presidents who preceded Obama is not considered to be white????
I think that Grover Cleveland gets counted twice. He was the 22nd and 24th President.
