Why would his literary agent print that he was born in Kenya? Why would she assume he was born in Kenya? He has an American accent, why would she think that? The only logical answer is because HE said he was born in Kenya! Think about it - Either she got this info directly from him or he told someone else he was born in Kenya and they told her. Either way this information came directly from HIM. My mother was born and raised in Scotland. I was born and raised in New York. I'm in my 50s, never in my life has anyone assumed I was born in Scotland as well so why would someone assume Obama was born in Kenya especially since his father was out of his life and Obama had zero connection to Kenya?
The most logical answer is Barack Obama himself provided that information directly to his agent. The document was created before the internet so no one would have found much biographical information on this nobody from any independent sources.
Obama could actually have been born in Kenya or he may have made the story up to enhance his background, thinking the lie would never be found out. Either way, the onus was on Obama to explain this document but the media were hopelessly compromised and the republicans too terrified of being tagged racist.
Of course he did. Barack Obama, a known liar, claimed to have been born in Kenya. Who really thinks that he was telling the truth? And how did he know?
Good points.
Also, Dr. Jerome Corsi actually went to Kenya looking for the truth which, to my knowledge, no regular journalists did. He found Obama’s grandmother who claimed Obama was born there in Kenya. The musings of a old grandmother, who had no idea of the ramifications of what she was saying, have to be taken with a grain of salt but should have been investigated more.
Also, also, I saw a news clip from a Chicago TV station that mentioned the then State Senator Obama was born in Kenya. Like your points, why would they assume such a thing if HE didn’t tell them that?
My understanding is that Obama supplied that information himself.
Another person who had a profile in the same pamphlet said he had to submit his own bio.
Obama wrote that.
“Either she got this info directly from him...”
Yeah, I believe someone asked the publisher about that blurb and he said the authors submitted the text and he just put whatever they sent him on the jacket, so Obama wrote that.
