[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 814378, member: 17969"] Moreluck, again, a stretch of the truth never hurts anyone eh? Here is an except from Obamas book: ""As a child, Obama spent four years in Indonesia with his step-father, a non-practicing Muslim, and his mother. Between ages 6 and 8, Obama attended a local Muslim school in Jakarta; after that, he was enrolled in a Roman Catholic school. In his book [I]Dreams Of My Father[/I] (p.142), Obama [URL="http://www.issues2000.org/Social/Barack_Obama_Principles_+_Values.htm"]writes[/URL]: [INDENT]In Indonesia, I’d spent 2 years at a Muslim school, 2 years at a Catholic school. In the Muslim school, the teacher wrote to tell mother I made faces during Koranic studies. In the Catholic school, when it came time to pray, I’d pretend to close my eyes, then peek around the room. Nothing happened. No angels descended. [/INDENT]In his more recent book, [I]The Audacity of Hope[/I], Obama writes (p.274), “Without the money to go to the international school that most expatriate children attended, I went to local Indonesian schools and ran the streets with the children of farmers, servants, tailors, and clerks.” He met his father once, and how you can associate any of his fathers beliefs on him is astounding. Either way, what does this have to do with anything? He grew up in hawaii went to the finest schools in our country, became a politician and then became president. What is there left to discuss? Peace. [/QUOTE]
