Who is the son of Obama?

We frequently get asked this question because Barack Obama and Barack Obama's dad share the same name. Barack Obama II (the president) has no sons; he and his wife Michelle have two daughters. But his biological father, Barack Obama (Senior) had at least five sons, who were born in Kenya; and he also had one very famous son who was born in the USA, in Hawaii in 1961. That son, Barack II, grew up to be president. It should be noted that there are internet myths which claim President Obama has a "secret son." He does not.
