4. I am glad to see Barack showing the other side!
The family values side, the side that the right-wing claims they have a grip on.

22. How do you know it wasn't caviar flavored shaved ice?
And for that matter don't "real" Americans eat sno-cones?

18. I guess I'm clueless
She's a beauty, and a handsome couple they make. How does she have the last name of Soetoro? Is that from a second marriage Barak's mother had? Sorry for my ignorance.

19. Yes. Soetoro was the name of Barack's mother's second husband
Barack's sister Maya is married to a Chinese Canadian, IIRC. I saw a family photo of the whole clan back during the primaries -- the essence of international concord all in one family.

Obama placing the lei on his grandfather's grave. So either the media was being respectful of his privacy :rofl:, or they couldn't get into the cemetary.

Grandpa would be SO PROUD of his grandson! :patriot:
