'Frank'
Googing the expression
'dreams from my' father Frank
yielded multiple results mentioning 'Frank Marshal Davis', so that answered the last name question. Beyond that, no; I'm no more interested in delving into Obama's influences and upbringing than I am that of any other candidate. Not everyone is influenced to the same degree by their backgrounds; I know plenty of preacher's kids who are now in different faiths, plenty of Democratic children with Republican parents.
i mentioned 'birther' only because i was pleased to see you brought better arguments to support your 'lying about his past' than the one I'd expected. Sorry for the knee-jerk assumption; I know you're aware of far better reasons to criticize Obama than that straw-man. He wouldn't be my first choice either; I just don't view Romney as an improvement.
