In the video below, the reporter visits Zulfian Mirzan and his wife who bought Obama's childhood home in Jakarta just four years ago from Barack Obama's stepsister Maya Soetoro-Ng for 500 million rupiah (USD 54,500). The reporter describes the inside of the home and shows all the rooms, including the room with the single bed across the hall from the master bedroom which the reporter states was a young Barack Obama's room. According to the current owners, the house including all the interiors has not been changed since the time Obama and his family lived there. The end of the video shows the Zulfian Mirzan's new baby who will be living in Obama's room.

The beginning of the next video below shows Obama on the campaign trail while the Indonesian reporter in the background explains that before Barack Obama became famous in the United States he attended two schools in Indonesia as a child. The reporter then shows the two schools, the Menteng Primary School and the Franciscus Assisi Primary School where Obama was registered under the name of "Barry Soetoro". The video ends with the reporter stating that Obama was a clever and friendly boy and that he left Indonesia in 1972 for Hawaii.

  2. Obama's mom was a hippy.

    Lao,

    Unfortunately none of this information seems to matter. The left of center Americans are wetting their panties over Obama. The progressives love his marxist platform (the 'empty suit' comment is inane, the man has a well written socialist agenda) and the rest are too ignorant to understand what he fully intends to accomplish; he looks and sounds good - makes them feel happy! Let's all become Canadians YEAH! *sarc*

    I am flat out amazed that it looks like his nomination is imminent. That he's going to slam Hillary in Texas is mindboggling. I was convinced, and wrote, back in November that it was inconceivable that he would win the nomination. I really believed that none of this mattered - he flat out wouldn't be chosen. I do admit to feeling gleeful that Hillary is getting her ass handed to her, I've actually cackled when reading her low return numbers in the primaries. But Obama? No, that would be worse than Carter for America at this point in time.

    I'm not a McCain fan, actually I dislike the man quite a bit - the Keating Five did it for me. He would have been my second to last choice after Huckabee on the GOP ticket, but I guess I'm stuck with voting for the lesser of two crap choices this time around.

    At least the Clintons will go away somewhat - I despise those people.

    *Nice to see you back writing, I always love your literate, witty and intelligent perspective on the world. Best wishes to you.
