No, if true, this casts a more ominous view of the relationship. And Ayers can hold this authorship over Obama’s head for whatever purpose. Ayers has the power to destroy Obama politically.

Excellent point. Aren’t federal background checks of any potential employee needing secret clearances mostly about items in a person’s history that could be sources of blackmail? (I know elected officials do not get the FBI scrutiny but all State Dept employees, for example, do get them.)

I do understand. We all knew he had an ominous relationship with Ayers. We knew the potential consequences of such a relationship. What I meant was that most of America thought that it was not an issue. The MSM journalists didn’t care. We cared, but it didn’t matter. The drones didn’t care. And here we are.
