Three possibilities follow the bombshell discovery that Barack Obama was promoted in 1991 through 2007 by his professional agency as an author "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii." (1) Obama untruthfully presented himself as Kenya-born. (2) Obama untruthfully presents himself as Hawaii-born. (3) Obama had no knowledge that his bio contained the 16-year-old "error" which was corrected in April of 2007, when Obama was gearing up his campaign for the U.S. presidency.
I choose door no. 2.
Link?
Imagine if this had been reported during the campaign in 2008 and even more damning Obama’s being stoned through most of his high school and college years. I can’t believe that the Clinton’s didn’t uncover this stuff when Hillary was running.
I vote #1 and it will be ignored.
My guess is they did, but my guess is also that the other side also had damning evidence against HRH (Arkancide, batting for the other team, etc.), so there was mutually assured destruction.
Eventually it will be confirmed that Obama did indeed supply the bio information himself.
Ping...............
To American Thinker article link.
agree
only an idiot or a obamite ( but i repeat myself) would believe that for 16 years 0dumbo neer once read his own bio
and of course did not supply the info
even though all other authors at that agency say they supplied their own personal info
I cant believe that the Clintons didn'tt uncover this stuff when Hillary was running.
Undoubtedly they and McCain campaign knew all this and more . . .
The real question for the sake of truth, not speculation, is WHY did they choose to not allow this and all the other seemingly pertinent information to be spoken of?
What was the purpose to remain silent? What was to be gained to remain silent? What was the risks to making a full frontal attack?
I agree. Applying Occam's Razor, I've always believed Obama was born in Hawaii. The Kenyan birth conspiracy, while possible is convoluted and simply defies common sense and reason. But I now believe that as a younger adult, Obama was telling people he was born in Kenya. The question that needs to be explored is why? Was he simply trying to earn "street cred" from liberal academia while writing his unpublished racial identity book? Was he trying to defraud scholarships? There's a serious fire burning here if birthers would get out of the way.
I wonder if there exists a manuscript of Journeys in Black and White. I'd be very curious to read it. And where else did Obama sell himself as Kenyan-born? This is what investigators need to be looking for, not a stupid birth certificate.
And, yes, this will be buried. The publishing house has already fallen on their sword, telling us this was a simple typo of their fault.
#3 is a no go. He’s so narcissistic he probably passed copies of the pamphlet out to everyone he knew and had a dozen tacked on his walls and taped to his fridge.
It’s a toss up on the other two which continues to prove he has told so many lies throughout his life he doesn’t know what the thruth is anymore. Combine that with mind-altering drugs and it’s no wonder he’s been giving speeches about his sons.
Here’s the thing...If this was just a “mistake” as the woman who claimed to fact check the Bio, then why did the mistaken “fact” say born in Kenya?
I mean, if it was just a mistake, why not “born in Sweden”, “Born in France” etc. etc.
Kenya just happened to pop up huh?
Well low and behold “some people”, so called “Birthers” had been saying they thought Obama was born in Kenya. Obiviously they are nuts, right? And what coincidence. Right there in Obamas own bio it says, what?
Born in Kenya.
Crazy birthers.........
The birth issue will only become relevant when and if something like school records are released that clearly lists Obama as a foreign student receiving financial aid.
However, I am sure the Chicago mafia has cleaned up all these loose ends, just like they did with the biography in 2007.
Ping for later reading.
This, of course, raises the question: Who was the first “birther”? Was it Obama’s publicist, or was it Barack Hussein Obama, II himself? One of them is the originator of the idea that Obama was born in Kenya, not any right-wing wingnut, not any fanatic supporter of Hillary Clinton.
For McCain it’s easy, He was afraid if that item were public knowledge then he might win the election. McCain never did sound like he wanted to win. He just wanted to be the republican nominee. That seems to be some sort of Republican Syndrome. It afflicted Bush I and Dole and McCain and maybe Ford. Romney is showing signs of the malady.
“The publishing house has already fallen on their sword, telling us this was a simple typo of their fault.”
Yeah it was a typo, they did not get the message in 91 that the clown was on a ticket to the white house. More than likely, the dopes that ran this place had no knowledge of the requirement to be a natural born citizen. Along comes 07 and someone finds this little nugget of truth and they decide it needs be excised. One of the few pieces of info that was not scrubbed by the democommie machine and when it was, there were too many copies out in the public to get them all.
Seconding what was said upthread, the Clinton’s didn’t want their dirty laundry exposed.
They too could have had their family threatened.
Yes....it is "2kool4skool".
When you're an average mulatto living with your bank VP white granny and attending prep school, what else are you going to do?
Bingo! We have a winner!
Playing up radical third world origins will get you further in liberal academia than being born and raised by middle class whites in Hawaii.
Probably not actual fraud, and irrelevant anyway since the statute of limitations has run out on any possible offense. But it is potentially embarrassing.
I mean, if it was just a mistake, why not born in Sweden, Born in France etc. etc.
I don't know if it was a mistake or not or where he was born, but mistakes usually have some connection to something else immediately present in front of you.
If you see "born in Hawaii ... father from Kenya" you might make the mistake of writing "born in Kenya" or "father from Hawaii." Wouldn't that be the commonest kind of mistake?
If you had a friend travelling to Sweden or France, you might accidentally plug those in to what you're writing, but aren't such mistakes less common?
You make the mistake and quickly look over what you've written. If you wrote "Kenya" and see "Kenya" somewhere on the page, you figure you're okay. If you wrote "Sweden" and don't see in in what you've been given, you read it more carefully to see if you got it wrong.
I'm not saying that's what actually happened, but c'mon ...
I’m waiting for a reporter to ask Jay Carnie: “Doesn’t President Obama owe a huge apology to the so-called birthers?” The reaction from both Carnie and the press corps would be awesome to watch.
Someone needs to ask that publishing house, where did they get the notion Obama was foreign-born in the first place? Obama certainly looks and sounds American. If he had walked into my office, I would have assumed he was American, unless told otherwise.
See the disconnect?
Am not discounting in total what you suggest. But it has to be much deeper than that.
I have also heard that Mclame wanted the campaign to be honorable and about issues. And I ain't buying that one either because as a Navy (military personnel) we all know character is everything.
Others have noted that if Obama registered for college in the United States as a foreign student (either because he was adopted by his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, in Indonesia or because he actually was born in Kenya), he pretty much had to go with the bio of the down for the struggle foreign author.
In 1991 Obama was only three years out of Harvard. Every alumni in a top notch grad school tracks everyone else, especially the high flyers such as the (first black) president of the school Law Review. Obama's born-in-Kenya story therefore must have been consistent with what Obama claimed with his student colleagues while in Harvard.
That's not the same as saying what Obama claimed about his birthplace at Harvard while he attended law school there is true. Obama could simply be providing continuity once having graduated from Harvard for a lie he told school officials while in Harvard as to where he was born for student aid purposes. If so, because of needed consistency of the paperwork trail for admissions purposes, that lie would likely extend all the way back to Occidental.
Someone should look up his Harvard student colleagues and professors to get them on the record as to where Obama claimed to be born back then.
I’m sure they did, but by that time it was too late because they would hve ALL the BLACKS against them. They could be behind all this stuff coming out now.....if his numbers go dwn to the high 30’s, he will be Toricellied.
BLACKS.....they would have turned against the Clintons.
Wrong. Romney WANTS to win BADLY!!!
They too could have had their family threatened
Have heard that also, but as above not buying in its totality
Many here believe Clinton admin the master of blackmail, intimidation. Some even go as far as accusing their admin of murder.
So the suggestion that the above falls victim to its own tactics? Plausible but not probable in my world.
Have to be much deeper. Now if you suggest a payoff or personal enrichment . . . now that might be worth following. Corruption is usually accompanies most explanations.
Why bother? They'll just lie. Truth is they thought he was born in Kenya because that's what Obama himself told them. Was he speaking in a Kenyan accent at the time? I wonder... But they'll never 'fess up to this. They'd rather blemish their reputation than tell the truth.
Sheriff Joe needs to pull his investigators out of Hawaii and have them start sniffing around Columbia and Harvard. Wouldn't be surprised if other literary agents made the same "typo".
Even if Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama had been birthed in the Lincoln Bedroom of the White House Obama is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
McCain was in on the fix. He was doing as he was directed to do, which was to pretend to campaign for President. Someone way high up in the shadows had so much stuff on the Clintoons that they were kept quiet about what they knew.
I think that the same shadow power brokers have now decided that zero has accomplished pretty much what they sent him to do. It’s time for him to go now. They also decided that Romney will be the R candidate and President. He will do as he is told also.
Did you notice how aggressive McCain’s campaign was in the primary to keep his Senate seat? Romney can be aggressive, even dirty when he want’s to. We’ve seen that. He might not have to do this with zero though, because more info will come out from other sources not connected to Romney. I had the feeling a while back that Romney has already been selected for us, not just as the Republican candidate but as the next President.
It’s entertainment for us, to keep us distracted.
I can imagine that meeting:posted Apr 15, 2010Hillary produces proof 0bama was born in Kenya.
Obama shows Hillary proof of a fraction of her felonies.
--------------------------------------------------------
What's the worst that could have happened to 0bama?
He declares that he was always told he was born in Hawaii, and had never been informed of the true circumstances of his birth, apologizes, and then he gracefully steps down and goes back to being a senator.
What's the worst that could happen to Hillary!?
If 1/10th of the rumors are true, She'd be facing being stripped of all her congressional perks, serious jail time and perhaps even the death penalty.
In this show-down, guess who blinks...
There is some plausibility to that. Had to think about that for a moment. But lets see . . . Did they not call Bill Clinton the "first Black President?"
Certainly some in the black community would have spoken out, but certainly a politician such as the Clinton's could have easily overcome that problem. If one can not overcome 10 percent of your base with a political solution, negotiating deals with the leadership, then one is in the wrong game.
Interesting theory, but not buying in its entirety.
Although I have to agree with the idea that Jesse Jackson being Bill's spiritual advisor, I am sure Jesse knew enough to blackmail ole Billy. But Billy boy knows how to play the game.
21 years and you remember exactly what you wrote, what you thought and why you wrote what you did, for a bio of a then unknown Barack Obama.
Yea. Right.
That's what doesn't make sense. What does make sense is that was what she was told and that was what was written.
What makes you think those people exist? The idiot certainly isn't educated.
Romney is taking things “off the table” and announces he intends to fight by gentlemen’s rules. Just as McCain did and Dole did, and Bush I, and Ford. I cannot believe he is simply stupid which is the other possible interpretation. I think he will take a fall just as the others did.
But if she did make a mistake, it was likely to be one that involved Kenya or Hawaii or something else in the data she was given, rather than something like Sweden or France, that wasn't came from some other source.
I don't believe the "shadow brokers" always get their way
President Reagan would be one example
But of course your point only raises more questions. What could be sooooo bad to make the Clinton's capitulate to Obama? Murder? Corruption? What could Obama accomplish that Hillary could not? Many many questions for every plausible answer I suppose.
PING
Hillary was born in Chicago with plenty of "connections".
I suppose the answer is that most important piece of the puzzle
I just went back and looked at the bio written about Obama.
He “worked” as a journalist for Business International Corp. Wikipedia say’s BIC “BI has been known to be used as a CIA front company.”
Maybe off topic. Just another concidence I guess
I found him uninspiring. But then the only person who ever got me to my feet was President Reagan. The company I was employed by had some dealings with Senator McCain. I learned then that he put special interests and contributors that suited his own personal interest before good of the "whole" so to speak.
I don't believe McCain "did not want" the presidency. He came from a pedigree that would have one believe that was his "destiny." I believe his failure as a candidate was his own arrogance. And yes, his insecure self desire to be "liked" by the MSM and others. Thus he spoke more favorably about Obama than himself.
McCain looked and sounded relieved in his concession speech. I’m sure he was also glad it was over too, but I never thought he wanted to win the way he campaigned.
If he opens the hood, Heaven only knows what might crawl,jump, or fly out at this point.
