When Obama said that muslims have contributed greatly to our country, was he talking the USA or Indonesia

When Obama said that muslims have contributed greatly to our country, was he talking the USA or Indonesia?
Obama lived in Indonesia as a child, from 1967 to 1971. So which country was he talking about? He didn't mention any by name. We have not had much of a muslim community in the USA until the 1970's. So how did they help us tame the west? Vince someone had to ask it. I assume it will be reported.

He is sucking up to them
2 :
He was not talking about America - that's for sure. Someone should ask him what the heck he meant by that... Anyone see Obama's REAL birth certificate yet?
3 :
It sure couldn't have been here. This guy is such a looser.
4 :
You're a little off the lunatic fringe beaten track. Most of your ilk claims he was born in Kenya. By the way, for the 1,685,783th time, he was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961.
5 :
If he was talking about here, what have they done to contribute? Maybe he is speaking of them becoming doctors here and paying taxes? I don't understand how that guy thinks ever! I don't think he has common sense upstairs
6 :
I think he was talking about 9/11! He likely considered that to be there greatest achievement!
7 :
Why do you follow up your previous question...which was a good one, with this?
8 :
He's trying to tell them that he really is one of them. Go Kenya!

Many,many,many years ago, when I lived in Indonesia, I had a snack that was called Martabak. Does any one know
It was shaped as a Pizza, but I believe it was Arabian inspired. It was available in sweet and Hearthy. Eitherway, It was scrumptious. If any one knows what I mean, would you please tell me how it is made. I use to live in Jakarta.

Mix in the other 3 eggs and chopped green onions just before wrapping the mixture. (Use 2 wonton wraps for each Martabak). Drop 1 tablespoon onto one wrap and cover with another wrap.

I think he was born in the country of Africa. This is a good question for Sara Palin.
5 :
Neither. He couldn't be president if he was born there, you hvae to be born in America to even be able to be president. He was born in Hawaii.
6 :
He was born in Hawaii. And you need a lesson in geography. There is no border between Kenya and Indonesia.
7 :
That`s really funny! There is no border between Kenya and any Asian country since it is in Africa.
8 :
Mars,now are you happy?Who cares where he was born.His mother was an american citizen,therefore he's an american citizen.McCain was born in Panama,so what.
9 :
He was born in Hawaii. He is a US citizen, if he hadn't been he couldn't have run for President. Kenya is in Africa Indonesia is an island nation in the Indian Ocean.
10 :
Honolulu, Hawaii A USA President has to be American born. Thats why you don't see the "Governator" running as a Candidate.
11 :
Hawaii, U.S.A. His father was studying at the Univ of Hawaii when he met Obama's mom, they fell in love and married, had little Barack. Dad got his degree and got accepted to Harvard but didn't get a stipend so couldn't afford to bring his wife and son so they stayed in Hawaii. When he got his degree from Harvard, he wanted to return to Kenya, Africa, but by then mom no longer wanted to go to live in Africa (she had a job and school) so they divorced. Dad went back to Kenya and remarried, had other kids. After his dad left Hawaii, Barack only saw his dad once (when he was 10) when his dad came to Hawaii to visit for a month. Barack's mom eventually married an Indonesian man and moved everyone there. She had a daughter. Barack wanted to go to high school in the U.S. so he moved back, alone, to Hawaii and lived with his grandparents. You ought to read his book, Dreams from my Father, it explains all this. The two countries aren't even close to each other. Take a look at a world map--Indonesia is among all those little islands in the ocean south of China and north of Australia.

Obama was born in Hawaii, which is a U.S. state. His mother was from Kansas, another U.S. state. What's the confusion?

Is it possible that Ebu Gogo are currently still living in Indonesia

Is it possible that Ebu Gogo are currently still living in Indonesia?
Homo floresiensis. I am extremely interested in this matter. Please serious answers only...

Belive it or not.... Richard Roberts, discoverer of the Hobbit, says local tales suggest the species could still exist When I was back in Flores earlier this month we heard the most amazing tales of little, hairy people, whom they called Ebu Gogo - Ebu meaning grandmother and Gogo meaning 'he who eats anything'. The tales contained the most fabulous details - so detailed that you'd imagine there had to be a grain of truth in them. One of the village elders told us that the Ebu Gogo ate everything raw, including vegetables, fruits, meat and, if they got the chance, even human meat. When food was served to them they also ate the plates, made of pumpkin - the original guests from hell (or heaven, if you don't like washing up and don't mind replacing your dinner set every week). The villagers say that the Ebu Gogo raided their crops, which they tolerated, but decided to chase them away when the Ebu Gogo stole - and ate - one of their babies. They ran away with the baby to their cave which was at the foot of the local volcano, some tens of metres up a cliff face. The villagers offered them bales of dry grass as fodder, which they gratefully accepted. A few days later, the villagers went back with a burning bale of grass which they tossed into the cave. Out ran the Ebu Gogo, singed but not fried, and were last seen heading west, in the direction of Liang Bua, where we found the Hobbit, as it happens. When my colleague Gert van den Bergh first heard these stories a decade ago, which several of the villages around the volcano recount with only very minor changes in detail, he thought them no better than leprechaun tales until we unearthed the Hobbit. (I much prefer Ebu as the name of our find but my colleague Mike Morwood was insistent on Hobbit.) The anatomical details in the legends are equally fascinating. They are described as about a metre tall, with long hair, pot bellies, ears that slightly stick out, a slightly awkward gait, and longish arms and fingers - both confirmed by our further finds this year. They [the Ebu Gogo] murmured at each other and could repeat words [spoken by villagers] verbatim. For example, to 'here's some food', they would reply 'here's some food'. They could climb slender-girthed trees but, here's the rub, were never seen holding stone tools or anything similar, whereas we have lots of sophisticated artefacts in the H. floresiensis levels at Liang Bua. That's the only inconsistency with the Liang Bua evidence. The women Ebu Gogo had extremely pendulous breasts, so long that they would throw them over their shoulders, which must have been quite a sight in full flight. We did ask the villagers if they ever interbred with the Ebu Gogo. They vigorously denied this, but said that the women of Labuan Baju (a village at the far western end of Flores, better known as LBJ) had rather long breasts, so they must have done. Poor LBJ must be the butt of jokes in Flores, rather like the Irish and Tasmanians. A local eruption at Liang Bua (in western Flores) may have wiped out local hobbits around 12,000 years ago, but they could well have persisted much later in other parts of the island. The villagers said that the last hobbit was seen just before the village moved location, farther from the volcano, not long before the Dutch colonists settled in that part of central Flores, in the 19th century. Do the Ebu Gogo still exist? It would be a hoot to search the last pockets of rainforest on the island. Not many such pockets exist, but who knows. At the very least, searching again for that lava cave, or others like it, should be done, because remains of hair only a few hundred years old, would surely survive, snagged on the cave walls or incorporated in deposits, and would be ideal for ancient DNA analyses. Interestingly, we did find lumps of dirt with black hair in them this year in the Hobbit levels, but don't know yet if they're human or something else. We're getting DNA testing done, which we hope will be instructive. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/indonesia/1475280/Villagers-speak-of-the-small-hairy-Ebu-Gogo.html
