No, contrary to a number of internet myth, he has not. His father, who has the same name as the president, was by most accounts an alcoholic, and involved in several drunk driving accidents; an uncle of the president was also involved in a drunk driving case. But there is no credible evidence that President Obama was involved in such things, nor was he ever arrested.

No, the president did not go to jail (except perhaps to visit inmates when he was working as an advocate). The president has a distant uncle (on his father's side), Onyango Obama, who was arrested for drunk driving in a suburb of Boston and spent several weeks in jail; but the president himself has a clean record and has never served any prison time.

No, contrary to internet myths, there is no evidence the president was arrested or was ever in jail. That said, he certainly may have visited prisoners in jail during his time as an advocate and a civil rights attorney in Chicago.

No, this is an internet myth. There is no evidence the president was ever arrested for anything, not in his teens and not at any other time.

Why was president Obama born from a white woman?

Although interracial marriages were illegal in many states back then, people of different races still fell in love, and some couples wanted to marry. In some states, Hawaii among them, that was permitted. Barack Obama Sr. (who was from Kenya) met Ann Dunham (originally from Kansas) in college at the University of Hawaii, and although they were from different races and both in their late teens, they wanted to marry and they did. Unfortunately, the marriage did not work out, but before the two got divorced, they had a child together-- the future president (Barack Obama II).


Did Barack Obama dodge the Draft?

No, this is an internet myth, and it's not very logical. During the last war when there was a draft-- Vietnam-- in the 1960s, Barack Obama was a young child (he was born in 1961). By the time he was in his teens and old enough to join the military, the Vietnam War had been over for a while. There were no other wars at that time, and there was no draft either, since the US had gone to an all-volunteer force. Barack Obama went to college, and did not "dodge" anything.

How does president Barack Obama interact with his children?

First, even his political enemies have praised the president for being a good father and for being involved with his kids in a very positive way. Although now Sasha and Malia are in their teens and don't want to spend a lot of time with their dad (or their mom, for that matter), Mr. Obama continues to have a good relationship with them. Sometimes, they still watch movies or attend certain events together, and his daughters joined Barack and Michelle on their trip to Cuba.
