According to Cashill, it is our president’s first memoir, Dreams from my Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, from which this fiction of Obama’s unrivaled precociousness springs and which put him on the path to the presidency. The only problem, though, is that Obama played, at best, a subordinate role in its authorship.
This is Cashill’s main thesis. Unfortunately for Obama and his followers, he makes a compelling case for it.
As one who has been in the publishing and advertising businesses for over 25 years, Cashill has “reviewed the portfolios of at least a thousand professional writers.” He noticed upon his first reading of Dreams that no more than “a half dozen among them wrote as well as the author of the book’s best written passages....” The significance of this insight must not pass unnoticed, for not only was Obama not a professional writer, he wasn’t much of a writer at all.
That is to say, he wrote remarkably little during his college and graduate school years, and the quality of what he did write pales in comparison to what lies between the covers of Dreams.
Cashill examines two essays that Obama penned, “Breaking the War Mentality” and “Why Organize?” The first was written while Obama was a senior at Columbia University, the second five years later while he was about to attend law school. While the second displays an admittedly “modest improvement” on the first, Cashill spares no ink to demonstrate that, not unlike its predecessor, “Why Organize?” suffers from “many of the same problems — awkward sentence structure, inappropriate word choice, a weakness for clichés,” and “the continued failure to get verbs and nouns to agree.” As if things weren’t bad enough for “the Obama faithful,” this essay — composed but two short years before he would be elected president of the Harvard Law Review and only five years before the completion of the book that would put him on the map — has “not a hint of the grace and sophistication of Dreams.”
Indeed, considering that in addition to marrying, Obama undertook a variety of other tasks that held up the completion of Dreams for roughly three years, the official account of Obama the gifted author is beyond a little difficult to accept.
