Is it true that Obama had ever lived in Indonesia

Is it true that Obama had ever lived in Indonesia?
I heard that Obama who will follow that presidential election in US had ever lived in Jakarta, Indonesia. I saw his picture at our national newspaper. It's really interesting and I would like to find out about that. Who can explain this?

Yes. Obama's parents divorced when he was young. His mother married an Indonesian guy and they moved to Jakarta. He attended private and public schools there and then he came back to the US.
2 :
Yes, if I remember correctly, in his memoirs, Obama wrote that he spent a few years in Indonesia before, and had studied in the local schools. To find out more, maybe you could read his memoirs.

You should read his book, which you should find easily enough at any Super Walmart. It's kind of ironic in that people make a case of Obama being black and possible running for president, thus possibly being the first black to maybe win. He's about as white as they come in terms of family money and history, if he were to run, he would be another example that it doesn't matter what ethnicity you are, it's your background and campaign funding that does.
