His father is an international student from Kenya and his mother is a white man from Kansas, USA. Obama graduated from Columbia University and Harvard University, and 1996 was elected to the Illinois Senate for the first time. In 2004, he was elected to the Illinois Senate for the first time, becoming the fifth black senator in the history of the US Congress and the only one in this Congress. Obama's father, Obama Sr, is Kenyan, and his mother, ann dunham, is a white female teacher in the United States. Their marriage didn't last long. They only had one child, Obama. Later, Obama lived in Indonesia with his mother and stepfather for four years. Dunham was born in Wichita, Kansas, and later moved to Hawaii with his parents. In Hawaii, Dunham met and married Kenyan student barack obama (Obama Sr.) and gave birth to a son named Barry, who is now Senator Obama. This marriage didn't last long, and it ended when Obama Sr left home for further study at Harvard University. Dunham later married Lolo Sutoro, an Indonesian student, and came to Indonesia on 1967, bringing 6-year-old Barry to Indonesia. The recent rumor about Obama is that when Obama lived in Indonesia, he studied in an extreme religious school. But the truth is, it is just an ordinary religious school. When I heard this rumor, what surprised me most was Julia Suryakusuma, who was a friend of Obama's mother. Suryakusuma, 53, is one of the most famous feminists in Indonesia. She has published many works and criticized extreme religionism. Suryakusuma said that Dunham is a liberal and humanitarian, speaks fluent Indonesian and loves Indonesian culture. Although he is interested in religion, he has not joined any religion. On the coffee table of Suryakusuma's residence in Jakarta, there is a photo album. This photo album records happy times. In the photo, Dunham has lively curly hair, wears loose Bohemian clothes and always smiles. Suryakusuma said, "You know, Ann (Dunham) is white, although she told me that she is of Cherokee descent." According to Obama, a distant ancestor of the mother's family is a pure Cherokee. Obama returned to Hawaii at the age of 10 to live with his grandparents. Dunham returned to Indonesia from Sutoro with her daughter Maya. Dunham is keen on making Indonesian folk female handicrafts, such as knitting and basket weaving, and has become an expert. Maya is now a professor at the University of Hawaii. Suryakusuma recalled: "We are all mothers. We talked about how sad it is for a mother to be separated from her children, but she (Dunham) is more concerned about Barry's education." Suryakusuma met the future senator for the first time when Obama went to Indonesia to visit his mother when he was young. She said, "Dunham is proud of him. I remember when Obama became the first black president in the history of Harvard Law Review, Dunham was full of pride. " Dunham died of ovarian cancer on 1995. After his parents broke up, Obama only met his father once before he heard that his father 1982 died in a car accident in Kenya. Although he didn't spend much time with his father, he inherited his father's skin color and became a banner in his political career. His memoir, 1995, was first published as Father's Dream. After entering politics, Obama borrowed his father's name (Barack) and felt his father's brand in the name he was called every day. Born in a poor village in western Kenya, Obama Sr is a cattle herder. Later, by a very accidental opportunity, he went to the United States to study, got to know Dunham and gave birth to Obama. Obama's grandmother and many relatives still live in that small village. Old Obama 1982 was buried in the village after he died in a car accident. 1992, Obama returned to his hometown for the first time and led his fiancee into the door. Old Obama's life is very complicated. While in Kenya, he married his first wife Kirzia and had two children, a son Roy and a daughter Omar. According to Obama, my father never really left Cotzia. Dunham, however, said that Obama Sr did separate from Kirzia, but "because this marriage is a rural wedding, there is no document to prove the divorce". The Hawaiian marriage between Obama Sr and Dunham may not have been properly recorded. Obama said in his memoirs, "How and when this marriage began is still unclear. I will never have the courage to figure out some details." After Obama Sr left Dunham and his two-year-old son to study at Harvard, he and another American woman, Ruth, returned to Africa. Ruth became his third wife and gave birth to two sons in Kenya, one of whom died in a car accident. However, Obama Sr also often goes to Cotzia. A relative explained that according to tradition, Cotzia was still his wife. Obama Sr also had a son with another Kenyan woman. I dreamed of Obama's complicated life and bumpy experience, but when I grew up, I organized charity in Chicago and gradually accumulated a reputation. While studying at Harvard Law School, he became the first black chairman of Harvard Law Review. This position is usually regarded as a stepping stone for law students to enter the Supreme Court of the United States as a judge's secretary after graduation, but after graduation, Obama chose a small law firm specializing in civil rights litigation in Chicago. After that, Obama chose politics and was re-elected as an Illinois senator for three times. In 2004, he stood out from the crowd at the Democratic National Congress and extended his popularity to the whole country. That year, he won the Senate election and became the fifth black federal senator in American history. Suryakusuma said: "You know, there is a white mother and a black father, and he has been to Indonesia, which makes him as easy to identify with all kinds of people as his mother." Some American communities see Obama as proof that integration can transcend race. William galston, a public policy researcher at the Brookings Institution, said: "I think American voters are ready to support leaders who embody the American dream." Larry Sabato, a professor of political science at the University of Virginia, believes that no matter what controversy exists, Obama can attract voters by making his life story public. Sabato said, "Americans like success stories." Suryakusuma said that she could imagine Obama's mother's "enthusiastic performance" and "how proud she would be if she knew that Barry and her children were running for president of the United States". Obama is currently ranked second among Democrats who announced their participation in the presidential election, second only to former First Lady and New York Senator Hillary Clinton.
