It is O'bama, not Obama.

I told you so.  Another Irish President, according to Bloomberg News:

While in Ireland today, the president is scheduled to visit Moneygall, a one-street town with a population of about 300 people in central Ireland. During the 2008 presidential campaign a local Anglican priest named Stephen Neill located baptismal records that established ties between Obama and the hamlet approximately 85 miles from Dublin.

In 1850 Obama’s great-great-great grandfather on his mother’s side, Falmouth Kearney, sailed for America at 19 years old, according to Ireland’s Ambassador to the U.S. Michael Collins.

“He was a shoemaker and his great-great-great grandson will be returning to Ireland” as U.S. president, Collins said during a briefing with reporters last week. “It’s a story about improbable success, almost of Irish legend and within his family story is a story of the Irish people, of resilience, courage, adaptability.”

The trip is “a very big moment, a moment of celebration and also a moment of purpose,” which will have an “unquantifiable” positive economic impact on the county that has been grappling with the effects of the global economic downturn, Collins said.

Ireland, which has a population of about 4.5 million, welcomed Queen Elizabeth II last week, marking the first visit by a British monarch to the Republic of Ireland since the country gained independence from the U.K.
