20 things you may not know about Obama.
« on: November 15, 2012, 06:52:38 PM »
You probably know he used to smoke, or maybe still does…read through first.
Also, there were recent publications about a possible connection of Obama to the occult group Illuminati, while some say Obama is an anti-Christ.
While all these are not proven yet, you may want to know other things you didn’t know about America’s first black president or first mixed-race president as some choose to call him.
Here are 20 things you may not know about Barack Obama
1. He collects Spider-Man and Conan the Barbarian comics.
2. He was known as “O’Bomber” at high school for his skill at basketball.
3. His name means “one who is blessed” in Swahili.
4. He won a Grammy in 2006 for the audio version of his memoir, Dreams From My Father.
5. He is left-handed — the sixth post-war president to be left-handed.
6. He owns a set of red boxing gloves autographed by Muhammad Ali.
7. He worked in a Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop as a teenager and now can’t stand ice cream.

14. He repaid his student loan only four years ago after signing his book deal.
