neotrans Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hi guys, Look what i found in a Belgian magazine. I found an article about the president elect Obama. One of the pictures shows him with his feet on his desk. So far so good, but ... a closer look shows that his shoes are in a terrible condition. So i wrote an email to his office and offered him a reconditioning of his shoes. I received a standard answer, but you never know. Look and enjoy... (I tried to upload the picture but it didn't work, so i have put it in the gallery, perhaps someone can put it in the right place, thx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh-Candoit (ENG) Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 So Mr Obama's great grand father (4 times removed) was a Shoe Maker. President-elect of the United States Barack Obama's great-great-great grandfather, Falmouth Kearney, emigrated from Moneygall to New York City at the age of 19 in 1850 and eventually resettled in Tipton County, Indiana. Kearney 's father had been the village shoemaker, then a wealthy skilled trade. http://www.oneeyedparrot.org/obama.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
