Go to Amazon.com and type in Who Am I? The Story of Barack Obama by Phyllis Andrews. This is a children's book written for grades 3-4.

[wad572]

why do they care about the middle east

they're not even close

[BigBillClinton]

Maybe Obama can go out and shoot and rape some Chinese when he is there. Its the national sport in Indonesia.

[Chickenhaed666]

Hey I like terrorists like Obama Bin Laden too! Glad to hear he has socialist impersonators.

But who will impersonate his gargoyle looking wife? You'd have to find one ugly character!

[votecinta4president]

ahhhh i cant comment on 'indonesia disilusioned with democracy' theyve been disabled comment :( i just wanna say dat the ballot paper is too big :D

[jonnyjmpup]

About 100% of Americans could care less.Obama is showing his inability to make sound decisions, a warmed over "old"cabinet,his choices idiots who do not know how to pay their taxes

[demiROX19]

this is some parts of t he indonesian anthem i think:

Chorus:

indonesia raya, merdeka, merdeka, tanahku, negriku yang ku cinta, indonesia raya, merdeka, merdeka, hiduplah indonesia raya

[demiROX19]

I'm indonesian, i know what they're saying without the translation....... =)

[TamilTigerRulZ]

his 4 years in jakarta??LMAOOO that's why he's so dumb

[ksufler]

@demiROX19 I'm not Indonesian, but I know what they're saying too. The Obama look-alike says at the beginning "kalau saya bertemu dengan dia" :)

[thedirtman00]

In America very few if any would know the Indonesian National Anthem. Unless the American flag was taken down nothing would be said.

If Cokelat performed it at a planned event as scheduled it would get some applause.

[MrPotatoesLatkie]

At a ball game, you would probabl;y get strange looks and, some anger and, insults, but killed? No way. You have stereotypes in your head.

[MrPotatoesLatkie]

"try making any american sing the indonesian national anthem...u will get killed..."

Really? Who will exactly kill me for singing that song? At most, people would think I was strange and, would walk away from me. Most would ignore me and, go on their way.

I don't think you have any uinderstanding of what everyday life is like in America, if you believe as you wrote.

[thedirtman00]

Fixing the problems left behind is going to take some time. That might try the patience of many throughout the world.

Most Americans know very little about Indonesia and what they hear isn't ever straight. Where Indonesia can benefit from Obama is in their image to America and improved cultural exchange. Where little else might change they might at least find themselves more fashionable to the world.

[jankren]

Im Indonesian and I think Obama is the best choice for USA. However, I believe its stupid for Indonesians to be crazy about him just because he used to live for 4 years as a little kid in Indonesia.

The fact is Obama doesnt have any special feeling about Indonesia. I always laugh when I see fellow Indonesians go nuts over him. He is a US President, not an Indonesian President. His election wont bring any change in Indonesia.

[0629197552]

You're a fool

[jankren]

Yo mom is a fool.

[richdawginthehouse]

@jankren so true!

[queensarah34]

Man that little girl can sing!!!

[HijabAmira]

obama is not good ,he is the same like bush.

[salps3]

i like obama

[dukunberanak3]

We all in indonesia support obama, Obama is Obama, had diffrent side with bush and cheney. Who have brainwash by clerics and hatred propaganda should not live in the world. Like obama said in inaguration, they only can destruct world and can not build it. They only send hatred propaganda message and not to try embracing their citizen to develop and make peace. If war come their finger will point US, israel. And slamming US, israel for their women and children dead.Only feces is in their brain.

[Gramra]

That was an excellent and informative comment. I laughed when you said "Only feces is in their brain."

[xijivuli]

I cannot help but think that all of Indonesia likes Obama because he a) Lived there and b) Isn't white. Statistics around the world, from Africa to America itself, show this. Obama isn't black, white, or brown. He is the color of abortion-red...

[XoXarabstaniXoX]

im sick of ppl being blinded by him cos of his skin colour..if usa is so free this wouldnt be a big deal..this would be part of the norm and thus not so suprising but yankees r so DUMB lol and they want every1 to be like them..down with usa, obama and israel

[XoXarabstaniXoX]

fuckn idiot who replied to me ..obama is half white and on his mum's side who is white he is related to dick cheney and they even mentioned it on FOX NEWS fuck u ..idiot fuck obama hes gonna kill all the middle east he is just bush but half black

[Arelak]

Fuck obama.

[FlatulenceFox]

To all the cynics here posting negative comments: The future is not yours because you are already dead. Dead in heart, spirit, intellect, ideas, faith, and humanity

The only thing you have to contribute are trite, tired, and destructive comments that only serve to boost your fragile egos and which give you a false sense that you have a great intellect and insight.

No matter what happens you will still be here commiserating in your negative and toxic thoughts.

[fitnaresponses]

let's hope and pray that mr obama will bring change to the world especially the middle-east and the islamic world !

enough of mr bush hate and war doctrine !

[kltgr]

Obama means new world order

[jfsimard79]

There will be no change. More spying, more war, more debt.

[craigowler]

I posted comments similar to this a year ago regarding Obama. He'll do as he is told by the minders of the American way of life, exactly as GWB did.

[Wareflea]

you must be very blind if you think that Obama will change things for good

[WKaliber1]

OMG maybe thats Obama! and the real Obama is in Indonesia! omg

[gazzalli]

mashallah!mashallah,mashallah yaaa!beautifull,beautifull.i wish americans good luck with obama and God bless you all.

[thedirtman00]

A new mask... I think that is a good analogy, and what to expect. It is the same people with a new face. The difference, Obama will take steps the right direction whereas the previous administration always went the wrong direction. Give him a chance. I'm trying to stop discrimination against southeast Asian musical artists throughout the west. It is a difficult task and we can be together on this.

[VictimOfBoredom]

There'd be no problem with singing the Indonesian national anthem at my school. At some schools? Certainly. But at all schools? No.

300 million Americans. Some of them are conservative; others are liberal. Conservatives are the ones who have a problem with Islam, not liberals.

[thedirtman00]

Have you heard Cokelat do Hari Mereka? Their sound doing this Indonesian anthem is awesome. It rocks. If you get a chance I recommend it.

[eveonline1]

American Policy will be the same with Obama.

United States will continue its aggressive policy and attack small peaceful Nations.

God help us...

[XoXarabstaniXoX]

obama is an idiot..he will fuck up more muslim countries including pakistan and many more u watch this twat is part of the illuminati

[purdyflywhteguy]

you cant be an idiot and part of the illuminati.

not to mention that hes black and was poor growing up.

people like you are so fucking stupid.

[kusari86]

he's not black, he's mixed. he and Dick Cheney are second cousins.

[july071992]

haha...the obama look-alike actually guested in a commercial here in the philippines

[TwoThirdsMajority]

God you losers take this too seriously!

Chill out man!

[egenisius]

indonesian always wantet to interfier other problem but within indonesia it self full of problem..from religion,economi,cronisam,and so on..look at kalimantan..they side line dayak ppl and even insault them..and if they voice it out..put them in the jail..radical muslim wanted change put in the jail..thier ppl fighiting each other..minority christian has been negelected..torture by it muslim mojority without respect..comon indonesian fellow..stop look at other ppl problem.not even Amarica.

[egenisius]

[VictimOfBoredom]

Do Indonesians sing the American national anthem at their sports events...?

Didn't think so. -_-

[VictimOfBoredom]

Killed? By who? I'm American, and I'd have no problem singing the Indonesian national anthem. Neither would any of my friends. Neither would any of my teachers.

America has 300 million people. They're not all the same.

[TwoThirdsMajority]

Oohh, Zionist puppet!

Yeah, he's a Zionist puppet. Watcha' gonna do?

[rckbttm14]

how could he qualify for president if he went to school in indonesia, you had to be a citizen of indonesia to go to school at the time obama went to school. which means he held indonesian citizenship status and no dual citizen can become U.S president. wasn't obama a constitutional lawyer so how does he get around the fact that he doesn't meet 1 or more qualification to run for potus

[abarzilai664]

In, fan worship of the One, out, anti-Americanism.

[conduit99]

100% agree Brother. That was waaaaaaaaay overboard. Do they know the history of America? It was founded and built on Genocide, and brutal inhuman chattel slavery.

[nickvanzetti]

its so sad too see the rest of the world has such a naive interpretation of the USA and politics. not their fault of course and there are many who know whats going on through out the world. Obama is in the hands of AIPAC so nobody should have any illusions of what his policies will be in the Middle East. Obama is a damn sell out and a damn fool,worse than Bush because obama is considered a savior everyone knows bush is evil.

[conduit99]

100% agree man. It's such a shame too. Judging in what he said on his campaign, what functions he went to, the language he used, and what questions he avoided, it is almost certain he will be willing tool for the special interests. It'll be very interesting to see how his presidency unfolds.

[VictimOfBoredom]

It's so annoying that people can be so fickle about their views of another country, just depending on who's its current leader. Americans weren't any different on November 4th from November 3rd. They're not any different now than from November 19th. Stop projecting your perception a single political leader onto 300 million Americans!

Americans hated Bush, and any non-American who doesn't understand that is clueless.

[deeba123]

USA will be wiped, it is just a matter of time

[VictimOfBoredom]

Do you want America to be wiped out?

[VictimOfBoredom]

There's nothing fucked up about embracing each other instead of hating each other.

[Geo408]

Hope things turn out ok.

[TheFlex21]

obama is a big-time zionists

you can see videos of him with AIPAC on youtube

obama SUCKS!

[DangerousNewb]

yaya but too bad, dats politics
