Whatever~ Here's what I have come up with from Snopes so far regarding the Potus and his money. It says that he and the missus could afford the home in Chicago due to his best selling books that came out in August 2005...However, they bought the 1.6 million home in June of 2005. Does Snopes think we is dumb too? I too would love to know how he became a millionare prior to being elected president.
