    Zenhead, I couldn't understand what you wrote about Benazir Bhutto

    You state that Barack Obama was in Pakistan in l98l, at which time he would have been only twenty years old. I think Benazir Bhutto was under house arrest at that time and it's very unlikely that she'd have been interested in meeting an unknown student, which is what he'd have been in l98l. Perhaps I misunderstood the reference to Benazir Bhutto.
