Obamas neglectful past no doubt helped cause Obama's identity conflict - which he is seeking to solve not by finding himself from "within" - but by discovering himself as a "hero liberator" in the in the eyes of some while venting his unresolved anger at other authority figures he transfers his anger too (the crackers).
This guys family is a horror show except for Granny (the one he threw under the bus). A drunk father who was still married and had kids in Africa dumps Obama and leaves him with a flakey mom with lots of her owm issues. She in turn sends him away to granny.
Back in Africa ( full of better countries than the racist US) Obama's older brother, Abongo "Roy" Obama is a militant Muslim who argues that the black man must "liberate himself from the poisoning influences of European culture." His cousin Raila Odinga is another militant accused of "ethnic cleansing" when his followers went ballistic after he lost an election (should we prepare for Obama's followers when he loses?)

Obama needs to become memorabilia in the political flea market of forgotten candidates who lost and went away - and the flakey family too.
