wow..... talk about propaganda..... ..no doubt posted by democrats or even obama himself - to try and paint obama as a "man of the people from humble beginnings"..... ..... . that is a picture of the back entrance - the back yard and the collapsed deck area... (which was a large concrete slab when obama and his mother lived there in the very early 1960s.... )...... .... granted it;s a modest home by mainland standards but it is in the manoa valley which can fetch super high prices even for a home of this type..... homes just like it .. (with a yard)... are highly sought after.....

by the way..... here is the front of that same home.......

and this is the home where obama lived with his grandparents as a teenager and early young adult... (shown below).... this was also the time period in which he attended the most exclusive and expensive private school on oahu.... .....punahou..... . this home recently went on the market for 2.2 million dollars...... and no.... the history of it had nothing to do with the price..... all the homes in that very high class part of honolulu go for similar prices......

Interesting. I briefly researched this before posting the picture. My understanding was that was a picture of what might be called an in-law suite, detached from the main house. My reading was that Obama and his mom lived in the in-law suite while his grandparents lived in the main house. I also saw he had lived in an apartment complex in the area, and of course he lived overseas and maybe even briefly in Kansas, if I’m not mistaken.

i don;t know about any "inlaw" suite...... most of the houses here with big yards have extra houses built on the property.... simply to provide the family with more living space in a very crowded city... and most of those are rented out as individual homes too...... but if you will notice that property in the picture does not have extra builidings built on it........

i have read quite a few things obama has claimed about his childhood and teenage years...... most of the people who knew him here back then call it total b.s. ...... they say he was a star athelete at a school not known for it;s atheletics.... the proverbial big fish in a small pond..... .... and like every other kid growing up in manoa valley and attending private schools was treated like royalty...... ... even his time living in indonesia with his natural father was spent attending private schools and living in luxurious houses...... ..... if the guy just told the truth about where he was from and who he was i would have a lot more respect for him...... but playing this po-boy from a po neighborhood routine doesn;t wash with me....

you do realize the property he and his wife recently bought here in hawaii is the old anderson estate made famous on magnum p.i. from the early 1980s?...... ....they demolished the classic spanish style villa...(which should have been preserved as a landmark)..... built a monstrosity of a mansion plus an illegal sea wall which is currently destroying both the reef and the beach and then declared what has been historical public property.... (as all beaches up to the high water line in hawaii are)... off limits to everyone....even the water for over hundred yards offshore is declared offlimits.... . secret service patrols it now and arrests anyone who even comes close.... ...the state of hawaii objected to it at first but now all they do is wring their hands and let it happen.... . claiming there is nothing they can do because as an ex-prez he has "priviledges".....
