Obamas father went to harvard. He already had a wife and kids when he met Obamas mother. She was about 18 when she got pregnant. He could not marry her.
He was not deadbeat. Obamas mother chose to forget about him and not follow him to his home country Kenia where he had to go back to.
He was very brilliant, that is how he got his scholarship to go to harvard. It is unfortunate that he became disillusioned with the corruption that happens in a third world african country.
But such is life[/quote]

Was he very brilliant or from a family that had enough money and connections to make it happen? Or was he the token guy?[/quote]

"According to Barack Obama, his father was the first African admitted to the University of Hawaii and he surprised the school by graduating first in his class. “He won another scholarship to pursue his PhD at Harvard, but not the money to take his new family with him – or so I was told. A separation occurred, and he returned to Africa to fulfill his promise to the continent.”

I guess he was brilliant.
