Probably would have been good for him to admit this sort of stuff after he was President....if that would ever be possible. These sorts of confessions don't seem to sit well with the typical American voter.

True. I'm guessing his people wish he didn't write that book in '95, or at least not the drugs part. But he did offer the "I grew out of it, drugs are bad" apology.

"Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to Barack Obama, Sr. a Harvard-educated economist of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Kenya, and Ann Dunham of Wichita, Kansas, [a white] anthropologist. His parents met while both were attending the East-West Center of the University of Hawaii at Manoa, where his father was enrolled as a foreign student." (Source.)

If there is one thing Barack Obama never was, it's "a down brother."
