A celebration to our first interracial President of the United States of America. Barack Obama was born to a white American mother, Ann Dunham, and a Kenyan father, Barack Obama Sr. This diversity possibly gave him and understanding of stable family life. He moved to Jakarta when he was six with his mother and her second husband, an Indonesian oil manager. Someone that surely taught him the economics of the energy industry. He returned to Hawaii, where he was brought up largely by his white grandparents definatley conflicting his cultural and religous views. His father wrote to him regularly but, like most absentee fathers, he visited only once when Barack was ten. A big dissapointment to an already confused child.
