WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH PRETENDING YOU'RE A KANSAN?:
Obama’s apple pie campaign (JONATHAN MARTIN & BEN SMITH, 7/7/08, Politico)
Obama offered a clear new version of his complex family story: “I was raised by a single mom and my grandparents. We didn’t have much money, but they taught me values straight from the Kansas heartland where they grew up.” His African father and his upbringing abroad were never mentioned, and he was pictured in six images surrounded by ordinary-looking white people.

He was raised by women, without a father in his life. So he's spent the last few decades trying to find one.
And now is running to be the National Weekend Daddy.
