Actually, he doesn't. There were some un-sourced rumors online that in college, he pledged a black fraternity (Kappa Alpha Psi or Alpha Phi Alpha), but there is no evidence to support these claims, and President Obama has never said he belonged to either of these groups. Mr. Obama has received honorary membership in several fraternities, however, and his wife Michelle has received honorary membership in at least one sorority.

You can't, because he is not Greek, nor is he of Greek descent. The president's mother was from Kansas, in the Midwestern United States; his father was from Kenya (in Africa). Mr. Obama does have some interesting ancestors on his mother's side, including several who are Irish. But he is not Greek as far as any reliable research has ever shown.

Does Barack Obama have Greek ancestry?

Trying to go further in obamas family history to see if he has greek ancestry. Seems to be information that someone does not want to be known. Can only go back six generations and it does not give any clues to answer the question.


Just because Barack Obama's dad was from Kenya Doesn't make Barack a kenyan right?

Probably not, any more than the fact that my father was from Greece makes me a Greek. Laws of citizenship do vary, however, from country to country. Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, which is a state of the United States of America. Therefore, by American law, he is a "natural born citizen" of the United States. A few people have argued that Obama wasn't born in Hawaii, or surrendered his citizenship when his stepfather moved the family to Indonesia, but there is one overriding fact that NO ONE is able to refute. If there were any person in the world who could have proven that Barack Obama was not eligible to become President of the United States, that person - who possessed both means and motivation to find the proof - was Hillary Clinton, Obama's opponent for the Democratic nomination. Since the Clintons and their world-wide political machine were unable to demonstrate Obama's non-citizenship, then it couldn't be done by anyone. Therefore, Barack Obama is a natural-born citizen and eligible to be President of the United States.


Is Zeus and Barack Obama both teachers?

First, are you asking about Zeus, the king of the gods in Greek Mythology? Or are you asking about the character "Zeus," a former professional wrestler in the WWE? In both cases, we could not really call them teachers. On the other hand, Barack Obama is currently our president, and although he can sometimes be very informative and educational, his role is not so much as a teacher-- rather, he is the leader of the United States. However, Mr. Obama used to be a teacher: when he lived in Chicago, before he got involved with politics, he was a professor of law at the University of Chicago.


What are the greek organizations at Harvard?

Harvard University has a variety of Greek organizations, primarily consisting of fraternities and sororities. The fraternities are part of the Interfraternity Council (IFC), while sororities belong to the Harvard College Panhellenic Council (HCPC). These organizations often focus on brotherhood, sisterhood, community service, and social events. While Greek life is present, it is not as prominent at Harvard compared to some other universities, with many students choosing to engage in alternative social and extracurricular activities.
