And the agency has stated on that point it made a mistake. And we don't just have to take the agency's word for it. We can compare the Times, Post and Tribune articles from 1990. We can compare the school application Obama's parents made in 1968 stating he was born in Hawaii. We can compare the INS files on BHO, Sr. which indicate he had a son born in Hawaii. We can look to the birth announcements. We can look to the repeated statements by the State of Hawaii.
The agency made a mistake.
The agency prominently marketed Obama for many years as ‘born in Kenya’. Anybody who honestly believes this was a mere clerical error is beyond clueless.
Anybody who knows anything about blurbing and hooking knows you put the good stuff in the first line. In today’s uber competitive market that is where you make or break your pitch. Screw up the first line, and the target audience is unlikely to read the second; they’ll just move on. Sad but true.
So lets look at Acton & Dystel’s hook:
‘‘Barack Obama, the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.’
Well my my, there it is. ‘born in Kenya’, prominently displayed, right up front. Sorry, Hook, it was a, if not THE, selling point. Game, set & match; you lose.
No, the agency acted faithfully as Obama's agent and put out a story Obama and they thought would enhance interest in him and sell books for them and him.
If Miriam Goderich had said it was an editing error, a slip of the copy and paste, I might be inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt. But, no, she maintained it was a "fact checking mistake". She lies. She had the real issue in her mind and thus could not bring herself issue a credible lie, editing errors and facts being separate mental categories, so she settled for fact-check error. LOL! Stoopid bitch! As if she ever checked any facts! LOL!
Obviously, the only reason it ever came up was that Obama aspired to higher office than Mayor of Da Sh¡tty of Chicagah, and Adjunct Con Law Professor Obama knew about Section 1 of Article 2 of that document he loathes. Up until that time, no problem: being a Kenyan immigrant with a compelling bio who is "articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy" was kind of neat, right?
Of course, Obama's lie in the book blurb notwithstanding, the evidence is quite overwhelming that he was no immigrant, that he was born in Honolulu and thus is eligible to elected to the highest office by the clueless Sheeple of our land. The Constitution only requires that he be a natural born citizen. It doesn't bar frauds or traitors from the highest office. It's only a Constitution, after all. Deciding who is a traitor and who should be President is up to the Sheeple.
