It turns out Barack Obama was dreaming big right from an early age - at just nine-years-old he announced he was going to be the prime minister of Indonesia.
The episode from a new biography of the president's mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, reveals the roots of a hunger for power which has driven Mr Obama's heady rise from an eccentric upbringing in Hawaii and Indonesia to the White House.
It will bring a wry smile to the faces of 'birthers', who are not satisfied he was born in the U.S.
In A Singular Woman: The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mother, author Janny Scott tells how young Barack - then known by the westernised abbreviation of 'Barry' - was pushed by his mother to reach for the sky right from the start.
Mrs Dunham died when she was just 52, never knowing the incredible heights her son would achieve.

Umm....OK so he aimed 2b Prime Minister but was NOT a muzzie.
Riiiiiight....?
Oh please.
Sure he did.
I also read he wanted to be the queen of England or the President of Mexico.
Another article I read stated he wanted to run an automobile company or maybe and Oil & Gas company.
“Barack Obama wanted to be prime minister of Indonesia at tender age of 9”
He’s probably legally qualified to be.
There’s one dream I wish had come true.
When I told my husband this headline...he said; “I wonder if you have to be a natural born citizen to do that in Indonesia”? Hmmm.....smart man I have!
Well, he’s definitely a foreigner. And it shows.
That’s the thing. Why didn’t he say he wanted to be president of the United States ... a much, much more powerful and wealthier country?
Dual citizenship?
I always grew up wanting to be the President of Belgium.
/sarcasm
It got so bad that his commie mommie didn't like it; it's the main reason lil Barry got shipped back to gran and gramps in HI.
Oh, puleez! As if a 9 year old knows much about being a prime minister. Either someone was putting this rot in his head from red diaper-hood or he’s a big fat liar.
His mother was in league with satan... she knew.
LLS
When I was 9 or 10 I told my teacher I’d like to become President someday. But of the United States. Not Indonesia or Kenya.
Far be it from us to squelch his ambitions. I will happily contribute to his air fare so he can attain the lofty heights he’s always aspired to.
LUcky for them he didn’t. He would have ruined their economy too!
What a hugh maroon!
Ummm, this link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Prime_Ministers_of_Indonesia
indicates they quit having Prime Ministers long before Barry was 9.
Perhaps Barry’s tranny nannie should have told him that.
Another check mark in the Muzzie column.
I’m not so much a birther, but I’m amused that Teh Awesome’s ego was in full bloom even that far back.
anything to try to sell a book...
