URGENT: YOUR PRESIDENT ELECT IS ILLITERATE [Ayers probably wrote Dreams!]

A number of Freepers across the country have been working behind the scenes over the course of the last week in a furious race to try to provide evidence in support of Jack Cashill's thesis which holds that William Ayers was at least a co-author of Dreams from My Father, if not in fact the majority ghost writer of Dreams.

Our original goal had been to scan several thousand pages of material into our database, but it turns out that the meticulous digitization of paper materials is an enormously time-consuming undertaking, especially when care must be taken to ensure that the semantics of the original source material are preserved as faithfully as is possible [or at least as faithfully as is reasonable], and the mechanics of it ended up taking a lot longer than we had anticipated beforehand.

In the end we were able to produce good, solid, faithful digitizations of about 35 pieces from the combined Ayers & Obama corpora, which [altogether] gave us a universal vocabulary between the two authors of approximately 13,400 unique words and word-like semantic elements.

Then since some of the Freepers on the team had backgrounds in signal analysis, we decided to form a vector space spanned by 13,400 "basis elements", and then we decided that we had 35 different signals wandering around within that space, where, a signal associated with a literary work would take as its signal value at a certain "basis element" the relative frequency of the associated word [or word-like semantic element] within that particular literary work.

From there, we declared the set of all possible signals to be a Hilbert Space, with the standard L² norm [square roots of sums of squares] on signals.

different L² distances between choices of pairs of signals, and finally we sorted the 595 different L² distances so as to give a sense of which literary pieces lined up the closest to one another in terms of their specific relative frequencies of the words in the global vocabulary.

Anyway, after the formal computation, it became abundantly clear to us that Barack Hussein Obama II is not the author of Dreams [as if we needed any further proof of that proposition - but more on that in a moment].

And while it is certainly possible that William Ayers could be a candidate for authorship [or co-authorship, or editorship] of Dreams, we didn't have time [given our deadline of Election Day] to create a nice control group against which we could test the Ayers hypothesis, so a stronger declaration along those lines will have to wait for another day.

On the other hand, we can say with complete confidence that Ayers is much more likely to be the author of Dreams than is Obama himself.

We will return to the mathematical output of our calculations in a moment, but first let's take a detour through the bowels of the corpora to give you some sense of the utter fraudulence which is the myth of Barack Hussein Obama II.

In all honesty, the three pieces known to have been produced by Obama during his Harvard years ought to be an embarrassment for most American high school students.

A few weeks ago, Cashill himself first noticed the lousy quality of Obama's 1990 Alinsky piece, and Cashill focussed particular attention on this sorry excuse for a sentence:

As Cashill likes to point out, the abstract gerund, "organizing", can't actually "face" anything - only the human "organizers" of the organizing would be capable facing something as mundane as a "problem".

But believe it or not, the other two known Obama pieces from 1990 are even worse -

Setting aside the fact that he writes fetus' instead of fetus's, the word "most", in this sentence from Obama's 1990 HLR abortion pieces, sticks out like a sore thumb:

We are pretty certain that the word "most" was supposed to have been either "more", or "the most", or maybe even "most of the" but somehow it was mangled into something unintelligible in Obama's hands:

And what's supposed to be the difference between attention which is prominent and attention which isn't prominent?

Anyway, it doesn't matter - shortly thereafter, the essay quickly degrades into the unreadable.

But this is nothing compared to the mistake in his 1990 Affirmative Action letter in the November 16, 1990 issue of the Harvard Law Review - note that in the very first sentence of the letter, the noun is PLURAL and the verb is SINGULAR!!!

But it gets even worse when you try to read the Constitutional Law exams at Chicago; for instance, here's an exam from 2003 [when Obama was 42 years old] where the preposition doesn't agree with the verb:

Setting aside the "you office" typo [with Obama, you just have to take it as a given that you'll be asked to grant a whole mess of mulligans when it comes to the typos], a man doesn't devote a decade on his career - he devotes a decade to his career.

But of course that's the same pattern we saw back in 1990, and which persisted throughout the 1990s and into this decade - the nouns don't agree with the verbs, and the verbs don't agree with the prepositions - and that's just sweating the little stuff.

The other night, a few of us got together and were trying to parse some of the gibberish in the old exam answer sheets, and after about fifteen minutes of reading stuff like this, we just threw our hands up in the air, and begged, "No mas!"

But then he went and gave McCain the bird last night after he gave Hillary the bird a couple of times last spring, so you don't suppose...

[On a completely serious note, having waded through year after year after year of Obama's obsession with homosexuality, I am now completely convinced that something very ugly happened between the young Barry Dunham and the self-professed bisexual child molester, Frank Marshall Davis, back in Hawaii, in the 1970s.]

Oh, and just in case you weren't clear on this point by now: Unless you're a homosexual trying to get married, or a member of a minority group trying to justify a quota program, or [and I kid you not] a couple in Bethlehem, named Mary and Joseph, who are trying to have a cloned baby named Dolly [I swear, you can't make this stuff up], then you ain't got no constitutional rights in Professor Obama's America: No right to life, no right to private property, no right to contracts, no right to keep and bear arms, no right to do really anything other than engage in homosexual sodomy to your heart's content.

Would that be the very same "Professor" whom he claimed to have been for at least seven straight academic years, from Autumn 1997, to Autumn 2003?

At this point, after crunching all our numbers, we decided that we would have a little fun with the fact that we had three logical "buckets" of literary pieces [Obama, Ayers, and Dreams], and also the coincidental fact that your computer's video card has three primary colors - Red, Green, and Blue ["RGB"].

We associate with Obama the three pieces from 1990 and all of his Constitutional Law material from the University of Chicago [1996-2003], and throw them all into a bucket of blue:

Then the color BLUE is associated with the [ostensibly trivial] proposition that Obama is the author of Obama's works.

William Ayers owns the chapters of his book, "To Teach", and the color RED will be associated with the [ostensibly trivial] proposition that Ayers is the author of To Teach.

Finally, the Mystery Author of Dreams will be yellow, and YELLOW will be associated with the [ostensibly trivial] proposition that the author of Dreams is indeed the author of Dreams:

We add BLUE [Obama] to YELLOW [Dreams] to get GREEN, which is the proposition that Obama is the author of Dreams:

We add RED [Ayers] to YELLOW [Dreams] to get ORANGE, which is the proposition that Ayers is the author of Dreams:

Finally, we add BLUE [Obama] to RED [Ayers] to get PURPLE, which is that proposition that William Ayers and Barack Obama are one and the same person:

Now remember, our metric measures distances, so the closer two things are, i.e. the nearer the distance between them is to zero, the more likely they are to be one and the same thing.

So things with distances very close to zero are very likely to be identical, whereas things with larger distances between them are more likely to be distinct from one another.

And when we dump all 595 of our distances into one big flat file, and then sort that file into ascending order, we get the pyramid which follows.

Note that Obama's Constitutional Law Final Exams from 1998 & 2002 are the two closest points of all - that's because Obama largely recycled his 1998 exam four years later for his class in 2002.

Thereafter we get some strong hits on both the internal consistency of the William Ayers style and the internal consistency of the Dreams style - their chapters sit close to themselves in our vector space, and that closeness indicates that both of those authors have a strong and consistent expository style.

But then we notice something odd - other than a few more recycled Exam questions, Obama just doesn't have a very consistent expository style - indeed we need go down only about 25% of the way into the stack to see ORANGE [closeness of the Ayers style to the Dreams style] moving its way ahead of BLUE [internal consistency of Obama's style.]

For instance, Ayers's Chapter 2 is closer in style to Dreams' Chapter 14 than are the Obama 1997 Final Exam answers [the "Memo"] to the Obama 1997 Final Exam questions.

Thereafter, from about the 25% mark down to about 50% mark, we get lots and lots of ORANGE, which indicates that the distances between the Ayers chapters and the Dreams chapters are well into the upper half of closeness of all possible matches of style.

Then as we cross the halfway mark, and head into the bottom half of the stack, GREEN [i.e. the idea that Obama is the author of Dreams] becomes more prominent, and by the time we get to the very bottom of the stack, where the distances are almost three or four times as great [~0.08] than they were at the top of the stack [~0.02], we see a veritable explosion of GREEN - so much so that at the very bottom of the stack, the proposition that Obama wrote Dreams comes to be dominated even by the [ostensibly] absurd proposition [PURPLE] that William Ayers is the same person as Barack Hussein Obama:

He is not the President Elect and being illiterate is the least of our worries regaring his possible win

don't overlook the fact that Bill Ayers has a brother (also a former terrorist) who is an English professor at Mills College in California
And who possibly knew Obama when he was a student in California
Perhaps it was not a slip up when Obama referred to his friend Ayers as an “English professor”- he may have been referring to the brother

I don’t think McCain is illiterate.

He’s going to be elected.

First, he is not going to win, so he is not going to be President-elect. Second, if he were illiterate, how could he read the teleprompter so effectively?

You posted an awful lot there KIDD.

But this... This stood out:

[On a completely serious note, having waded through year after year after year of Obama's obsession with homosexuality, I am now completely convinced that something very ugly happened between the young Barry Dunham and the self-professed bisexual child molester, Frank Marshall Davis, back in Hawaii, in the 1970s.]

Unless FMD is indeed Barry's REAL father, I too believe there was more. Much much more going on between Davis and Obama than just Davis getting young Barry drunk on gin.

Bookmarked and saved.

Thank you for the HARD work.

As a teacher, I know how PAINFULLY difficult it can be to read drivel...

and you obviously trudged through a ton of it.

Is that why it took him 15 minutes to vote for himself this morning?

I clocked it at 18 minutes on FOX but why split hairs? ~

***if he were illiterate, how could he read the teleprompter so effectively?***

There are two parts to the definition of illiterate.

It means a substandard ability to read and/or WRITE.

0 obviously cannot write.

hey don’t president elect Hussein here.....

what are you trying to do...stiffle the vote?

Having raised teenage boys, we know what happens in an enclosed space with THAT MUCH time.

You have a horrendously high dimensionality there. Did you consider using Factor Analysis to reduce the dimensionality, or Cluster Analysis to group similar pieces of literature together? I'm not criticizing what you've done. It's just that there are additional kinds of analysis that might shed more light on what you have.

Put down the coffee and go for a walk.

ROTF!

It works wonders for those in need of a walk. ; )

Hard Work bump!

I can say most details of it are 'above my pay grade'.

And that habit of his of shooting the finger is pissing me off!

Arrogant POS!!
