...haunts. Teachers, students and parents at Punahou, the ?lite school that Obama attended for eight years on scholarship, don't quite know what to make of the Japanese tour buses that have begun to stop at their 76-acre campus; Obama's East Asian fans routinely photograph the banyan tree he likely climbed during fifth-grade recesses and surely speculate on which apartment he lived in with his grandparents on Wilder Street across from the school...
