It's downright strange that (at least to my knowledge) no women Obama used to date have come out and done the interview circuit. You know he did his thing back in the day.

Looks like it's not a big revelation though. From the above link:

UPDATE: In the reissue of "Dreams from My Father," Obama writes in the introduction that "some of the characters that appear are composites of people I’ve known."CORRECTION: An earlier version of this blog post stated that Obama had acknolwedged using composite characters in the reissue. In fact, Obama acknolwedged the use of composite characters in the first edition of the book.​

The version of "Dreams of my Father" I borrowed from the library said in the introduction (or something like that I have a kindle) that multiple people in the book were composites. It made me question whether it could really be called a true autobiography, but I am not surprised to hear this.
 
Muslims don't fornicate before marriage.
 
One night I took her to see a new play by a black playwright. It was a very angry play, but very funny. Typical black American humor. The audience was mostly black, and everybody was laughing and clapping and hollering like they were in church. After the play was over, my friend started talking about why black people were so angry all the time. I said it was a matter of remembering—nobody asks why Jews remember the Holocaust, I think I said—and she said that’s different, and I said it wasn’t, and she said that anger was just a dead end. We had a big fight, right in front of the theater. When we got back to the car she started crying. She couldn’t be black, she said. She would if she could, but she couldn’t. She could only be herself, and wasn’t that enough.

Yeah, I don't get Tyler Perry either.

Frankly I am surprised that the reaction to this thread has not been stronger. All politicians lie, but Obama's track record is particularly egregious.
 
Yeah. She was interviewed for a book.

One thing that was interesting about those excerpts is that she called him "Barack". I thought he went by Barry until after he finished law school.

He ran as "Barry" for a few local elections, IIRC.
 
OK. I knew it was at least until he was done with school.
 
No way he pulled any trim in those Jordache jeans he wears.
 
Yeah. Read it several years ago. It's a story of an interesting young life.
