It's true.
In his recent book on Obama David Maraniss reported that when leftist activist Jerry Kellman interviewed Obama for a community organizing job in Chicago, he pressed Obama on this and asked Obama how he felt about living and working in the black community for the first time in his life. But there would be no first time.
Because as Richard Pollock has reported in the Washington Examiner: "Obama accepted the job but chose not to live among those he would be organizing. Instead, he commuted 90 minutes each way daily from his apartment in Chicago's famous Hyde Park to the Altgeld Gardens housing project where he worked.
"It was an early instance of Obama presenting himself one way while acting in quite a different way."
