“The agent now says it was her mistake and Obama never told her that.”
And at the time- Obama never said that it was not right and to fix it. I don’t think so.
Obama’s wikipedia biography said that he was born at Queen’s Hospital in Honolulu. It took several years for that “error” to be corrected. A story in the Honolulu Advertiser about Tammy Duckworth said Obama was born in Indonesia. This error wasn’t “corrected” for a long time. There’s a long list of errors in the official bio that have never been corrected.
