'''Barack A Obama''' (b 1961) http://www.collegecandy.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/03/obama.jpg ==Barack Hussein Obama, Jr== Barack Hussein Obama was born in 4 Aug 1961 in Honolulu, [[Honolulu County, Hawaii|Honolulu County]], [[Hawaii]] to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. (born in Nyanza Province, Kenya) and Stanley Ann Dunham (born in [[Wichita, Kansas|Wichita]], Sedgwick County, [[Kansas]]). His parents had met while both were attending college at the University of Hawaii. His parents divorced and his mother remarried while Barack was a young child — his father returned to Kenya. Stanley Ann Dunham married secondly to an Indonesian man and the family went there to live for a time. It was decided however after Barack had lived there for some few years, that he would be raised by his maternal grandparents in Honolulu. So at the age of ten he went to live with them, while his mother continued living in Indonesia with her then-husband. It was in Honolulu that Barack finished his primary schooling. Barack's father died in an auto accident when Barack was 21. His mother Ann was born 29 Nov 1942 and died 7 Nov 1995. Barack moved to Chicago where on 18 Oct 1992 he married at Trinity United Church of Christ to Michelle LaVaughn Robinson who had been born there on 17 Jan 1964. They have two children. Barack is currently a US Senator from [[Illinois]], and is the sole surviving contender on the Democratic ticket for the US Presidential Election of 2008. His Democratic challengers were: [[Joseph Biden|Joe Biden]], [[Christopher Dodd]], [[John Edwards]], [[Dennis Kucinich]], [[Hillary Diane Rodham|Hillary Clinton]], [[William Richardson|Bill Richardson]], and [[Mike Gravel]]. ===Gay Rights=== *[http://lesbianlife.about.com/od/lesbianactivism/p/BarackObama.htm Run-down of Barack Obama's views on gay rights] ===Secondary sources for 1=== *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama "Barack Obama"] at Wikipedia *[http://www.wargs.com/political/obama.html "Ancestry of Barack Obama"], compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner *[http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=bgmi&so=2&rank=0&tips=0&gsfn=&gsln=obama&sx=&gs1co=1%2cAll+Countries&gs1pl=1%2c+&year=&yearend=&sbo=0&sbor=&ufr=0&wp=4%3b_80000002%3b_80000003&srchb=r&prox=1&db=&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-b&o_iid=21416&o_lid=21416&o_it=21416 ''Biography and Genealogy Master Index'', citing ''Who's Who in the Midwest'', 2002] ==Royal ascent== On William Addams Reitwiesner's research page, we can see how Barack Obama is a descendent of Martha Eltonhead.
