Obama in Indonesia

An American Expat in IndonesiaBlog reports on local news coverage of Obama in Indonesia, including clips from the TV there.

Summary:

Obama studied at a both a Catholic grade school (where he was registered under his stepfather's name and listed as a Muslim) and then a secular public school (which like most countries includes religion classes), not a madrass...but did attend prayer services at a moque with his father/grandfather. ...


The Obama mania of the press reports I see from here make me wonder if anyone is really voting about the issues.

I mean right now withdrawing will mean massacres, not peace...and I marvel that the Democrats will again pick an extreme left wing demagogue over a better qualified and more experienced Hillary.
