‘If Obama never said he was born in Kenya, then where did that idea even come from within that literary agency?’
Oh, come on, it is easy and a simple mistake. Look what it says; the first AFRICAN American president of the Harvard Law Review. See it. Anyone would assume Kenya upon reading those words.
Plus, one would think the former first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review would be a good enough editor to factcheck his own biography and catch a mistake ... if this is indeed a mistake. It reminds me of how Wikipedia listed Obama as born at Queen’s Hospital in Honolulu several years before it was changed to the new official Kapiolani Hospital.
