This should explain his mother.
Descended from a white American mother and black Kenyan father, the Illinois Democrat once wrote: He was black as pitch, my mother white as milk.
In his first memoir, Dreams from My Father, Obama observed that when people discover his mixed-race heritage, they make assumptions about the mixed blood, the divided soul, the ghostly image of the tragic mulatto trapped between two worlds.
Indeed, Obama acknowledges feeling tormented for much of his life by the constant, crippling fear that I didn't belong somehow, that unless I dodged and hid and pretended to be something I wasn't, I would forever remain an outsider, with the rest of the world, black and white, always standing in judgment.
Although Obama was raised by his mother, he identified more closely with the race of his father, who left the family when Obama was 2.
I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites, he wrote.

Good, so we've established that he hates his mother. Now I guess we can rightfully dismiss any notion that he's a socialist because his mother hung out with socialists when she was a young woman.
