...four women and that he abandoned each of them. Its odd statement that S. Ann Soetoro "decided not to follow" Obama's father back to Kenya neatly overlooks the fact that he was returning to Kenya (and his Kenyan wife and children) with an American woman whom he had met in Massachusetts after he left Ann and Barack in Hawaii and who became his third wife.
