Picture of the day: Barack Obama and his mom

By R.K. Barry


The New York Times ran a story today about President Obama's mother, Stanley Ann Dunham. It's a well-meaning attempt to better understand the woman who, by any measure, raised a remarkable child. After working through the very lengthy piece, I'm not really sure I know her much better, but it's worth a look.
