In 2017, David Garrow’s carefully researched Obama biography, Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama, appeared to much less fanfare than it deserved. The media undoubtedly downplayed it because it offered the truth behind many of Obama’s self-adulatory inventions, and Trump’s new presidency occupied everyone’s energy. What makes the book newsworthy today is that David Samuels has interviewed Garrow and revisited narratives in the book, reminding everyone of the scary, power-obsessed nastiness behind Obama’s carefully built façade.
The interview on Tablet is long and worth every second it takes you to read it. However, I’ve summarized below some of the highlights.
In Dreams from My Father, Obama describes his breakup with Sheila Miyoshi Jager, now a scholar known for her meticulous, honest research. According to Obama, they broke up because after seeing a play by August Wilson, a black writer, Obama suddenly gained a black consciousness that Jager refused to recognize or understand.
However, Garrow, unlike other journalists in America, interviewed Jager for her side of the story. It was quite different.
Jager said that they broke up because they went to see an exhibit about Adolf Eichman’s 1961 trial at the same time that Steve Cokely accused Chicago’s Jewish doctors of giving black babies AIDS. Jager, whose grandparents were honored as Righteous Gentiles for saving Jews during WWII, broke up with Obama because he refused to denounce anti-Semitism. Considering Obama’s open hostility to Israel and later palling around with famous anti-Semites (e.g., Rev. Wright; Obama’s infamous and still hidden tape at a pro-PLO dinner, and Obama’s photo with Farrakhan), her version rings true.
Another revelation was that Obama fantasized about sex with men, which would seem to support the many rumors about his sexuality.

A worthy scholar, and mother of four.
obama got Michelle instead, and unfortunately got to be President. And now it seems that he is the shadow President, and is ruining our country!
BO hung around w/Edward Said and Rashid Khalidi. ‘nuff said.
The last paragraph is a bell ringer.
Do you wonder why the dims did not turn on Biden long ago?
Presidential candidates prepare years ahead of time....two years is the minimum. So why did they not dump Biden and give the next guy two years to prepare?
Because in a few months you are going to see dims and their supporters wringing their hands and wailing....”Joe can’t do it, woe woe woe what are we going to do?”
“HA! I knnow, the only way to save us is to run Michelle!”
And the dumb repubs will not have the time to get all of the reasons why not out in public view.
I would bet money on it.
The empty chair with Clint Eastwood is always good to rewatch.
It disappeared quickly during his presidential run.
Yep, Michelle may run, but it will really be Barky running for his fourth term.
