According to his own writings, Mr. Obama was very discouraged that he never had a relationship with his father. He had no idea why his father showed so little interest in him over the years. When his father died, it made young Barack determined to learn more about who his father was and why he had acted the way he did. The end result was a trip to Kenya in the late 1980s to meet his dad's family and to try and learn more about the man he barely knew. You can read more about how he felt, and about his journey to Kenya, in Mr. Obama's autobiography, "Dreams from my Father."

Could the attacks in Mumbai in November 2008 be a test to check out the reactions of the US President-Elect Barack Obama?

If they are a test of President-elect Obama, then they are organized by people who have no idea who the US system works. Obama is not now the President and has no power to react at present. All he can do until 20 January is to speak. More likely, the Mumbai attacks are an expression of the Kashmir conflict and have little or nothing to do with the US election cycle.
