Does he speak more languages than McCain? Did McCain learn Vietnamese?

He speaks some Spanish. He has a smattering of Swahili and Indonesian, when he was in Kenya and Indonesia.

When he spoke Spanish in some ads, his pronuntiation was very good, but I don't know which is his level exactly.

He studied the Spanish language and English literature at Occidental College in Los Angeles and at Columbia University in New York.

I've heard that Obama speaks Arabic quite fluently, something to do with his faith...

Erm Obama is Christian. He isn't Muslim like McCain said to scare some people.

I'veJ heard that LK is just a Republican neo nazi that can't stand the fact that the President of USA is black. Get used to it because after Obama you'll have an Hispanic woman as the President.

I don't know how fluently he speaks it, but Obama definitely still understands day to day Indonesian.
