Barack Hussein Obama is a By-product of White Privilege

According to a May 3rd, 2011 NPR article titled “The ‘Singular Woman’ Who Raised Barack Obama” about Barack Hussein Obama’s roots and his mother Stanley Ann Dunham and her family Fresh Air wrote,

In 1960, Dunham’s [white] family moved to Hawaii, where she enrolled in college. It was in Hawaii that she met a Kenyan student named Barack Obama. Three months pregnant with their [mixed race] child, she married him in 1961. Obama Sr. stayed in school in Hawaii, and Dunham returned to Seattle with her newborn baby, Barack. She returned to Honolulu in 1963; she and Obama divorced in 1964. In 1966, Dunham married Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian man studying in Honolulu on a student visa.

Obama’s step father was Lolo Soetoro Mangunharjo. Lolo Soetoro Mangunharjo was a geographer hailing from Indonesia. Lolo also served as a team member in the Indonesian Army. Lolo was a geologist who was highly educated as well as had the potential to work hard. Lolo also served in the Union Oil Company in government relations.

NPR’s Fresh Air continues stating,

Obama was largely raised in Hawaii for the first six years of his life, but in 1967, he moved to Indonesia with his mother to join Soetoro, who worked as a surveyor for the Indonesian government and then a consultant for Mobil. Dunham taught English, worked in rural development and consulted on microfinance projects. Obama attended local schools in Jakarta. He also, at her insistence, took English correspondence classes and regularly woke up before dawn to go over his English language skills.

“She believed that he deserved the kind of opportunities that she had had [like] the opportunity to a great university,” Scott says. “And she believed that he would never get that if he didn’t have a strong English-language education. So at a certain point, she decided she wasn’t serving his interests well by keeping him in Indonesia and in Indonesia schools.”

Then this happened,

Four years later, Obama moved back to Hawaii to live with his [maternal white] grandparents [Stanley and Madelyn Dunham] while his mother stayed in Indonesia with her second husband and daughter Maya Soetoro-Ng.

Obama’s White Maternal Grandparents

Fresh Air noted,

Obama decided not to return to Indonesia with his mother. In 1985, she wrote a list of her long-range goals, which included “finish[ing] her dissertation, making a salary of 60K, los[ing] weight … and having constructive dialogue with Barry” — a nickname used for the junior Barack Obama.

Scott says she doesn’t know of any problems between Obama and his mother, but there were some indications that his mother felt some sadness about the physical distance between them.

“At different moments in her life she is upset, and at one point, in his senior year of high school in Hawaii, she goes back just to be with him because she realizes it’s the last year of his childhood,” she says. “Later, one friend describes her as wistful about his decision to move to Chicago and root himself in Chicago and emphasize the sort-of black part of himself. So I think there was a theme — and this is just snippets of little things I’ve stumbled upon — that she had a kind of longing for a closer relationship with him.”

Barack Hussein Obama’s Socialist roots

Discover The Networks (DTN) profile on Barrack Hussein Obama’s socialist roots notes,

The early groundwork for Obama’s socialist worldview was laid during his teen years, when he was mentored by the writer/poet Frank Marshall Davis, a longtime member of the Communist Party and the subject of a 601-page FBI file.” The co-founder of a Communist-controlled newspaper that consistently echoed the Soviet party line, Davis had previously been involved with the American Peace Mobilization, described by Congress as not only “one of the most notorious and blatantly communist fronts ever organized in this country,” but also “one of the most seditious organizations which ever operated in the United States.” When Obama in 1979 headed off to Occidental College in California, Davis cautioned him not to “start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that sh–.”

Obama’s Socialism During His College Years

In his memoir, Dreams from My Father, Obama recounts that he chose his friends “carefully” at Occidental, so as “to avoid being mistaken for a sellout.” Among those friends were all manner of radicals, including “the more politically active black students,” “the Chicanos,” “the Marxist Professors and the structural feminists.” Further, Obama writes that he and his similarly “alienated” college friends regularly discussed such topics as “neocolonialism, Franz Fanon [the socialist revolutionary], Eurocentrism, and patriarchy.”

Finally DTN notes how Marxists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, former Weather Underground terrorists, launched Obama’s political career,

It was in the mid-1990s that Obama first decided to try his hand at electoral politics, setting his sights initially on a state senate seat in Illinois. Remarkably, Obama launched his political career in the home of two well-connected Chicagoans, longtime activists who would help the fledgling politician make important contacts and enlarge his public profile. These two allies were the infamous Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, lifelong Marxists who in the 1960s and ’70s had been revolutionary leaders of the Weather Underground Organization, a domestic terror group (described by Ayers as “an American Red Army”) that aspired to transform the U.S., by means of violence and even mass murder, into a Communist country. In 1974, while they were on the FBI’s “Most Wanted” list, Ayers and Dohrn co-authored a book that openly advocated “revolutionary war” as “the only path to the final defeat of imperialism and the building of socialism”; called for “a revolutionary communist party … to lead the struggle [to] seize power and build the new society”; and lauded socialism as the key to “the eradication of the social system based on profit.” Now, they were the key figures ushering Barack Obama into a political career.

And as they say the rest is history. During his presidency Barack Hussein Obama began the fundamental transformation of America into a socialist county. That effort continues and is accelerating today under Joseph Robinette Biden Jr.

The Bottom Line

Obama was born to well educated white woman whose mother and father were well employed in the Aloha State. Obama attended Punahou School—a private college preparatory school—with the aid of a scholarship from fifth grade until he graduated from high school in 1979. His white maternal grandmother helped pay for his high school education at a very prestigious private school.

Barrack Hussein Obama’s maternal DNA is from whites from Kansas and his heritage is half-white. Barack Hussein Obama is ipso facto a by-product of white privilege.

Therefore, Barrack Hussein Obama, as a by-product of white privilege, is by definition also a half-white supremacist. His maternal family who did well, were successful, supported him and his education and gave him the opportunities, social and cultural background skills to become the president of the United States.

If that’s not white privilege then I don’t know what is.
