I read an article about Barack Obama. I learned that his father is from Kenya and his mother is from America. His parents were both students at the University of Hawaii. His father eventually wen to Harvard leaving Barack and his mother behind in Hawaii. His father later moved to kenya alone and him and Baracks mother got a divorece. In Obamas teenage yeas he had lots of problems with drygs and alcohal but over came those addiciton knowing that there are better things in life. He is today the president of the United states.
