According to the booklet itself, the text was edited by Miriam Goderich, who has since become Dystel's partner at Dystel & Goderich, an agency founded in 1994.
and
He [Jay Acton of Acton & Dystel] indicated that while "almost nobody" wrote his or her own biography, the non-athletes in the booklet, whom "the agents deal[t] with on a daily basis," were "probably" approached to approve the text as presented.
So Obama "almost" certainly didn't write the bio but "probably" approve it.
Miriam Goderich's statement:
"This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me--an agency assistant at the time," Goderich wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News. "There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more."
Miriam Goderich’s statement raises many obvious questions. Most notably, it’s idiotic on its face, and could only have been accepted by the MSM & Obots—overlapping categories. Anyone else would ask the blindingly obvious questions, and acknowledge that there was a very good reason Goderich herself has never been asked to explain her nonsensical ‘explanation.’
To help Obots understand.
Posit a very conservative politician who is wildly popular with the Tea Party. Call her Parah Salin. From the onset of her meteoric rise questions swirl around her birthplace. She claims to have been born in Minnesota. However, a fellow conservative says she was born in Canada, and a variety of indicators point in that direction.
Salin’s supportors vociferously reject the claim. They point out that Minnesota officials have confirmed Salin’s birth, and charge that her detractors just don’t like strong conservative women.
But the rumors will not die. Fueled by Salin’s extreme reluctance to release documention, strange oddities in the few records she grudgingly does release, and an unprecedented number of sealed/hidden documents, the ‘born in Canada’ charge lives on.
Then a startling revelation occurs. A pamphlet printed by Salin’s first literary agent surfaces. The text is shocking. ‘Born in Moose Jaw Canada, Salin’s unlikely journey takes her south to the continental US and ultimately even further north, to the governorship of Alaska. Her upcoming book, ‘From Cold to Colder’ details her staunch defense of Reagonesque conservatism at ever step of the way.’
Her critics pounce. She was commissioned to write this story. She took $ for it. It clearly begins in Moose Jaw, Canada. The jig is up!
Her defenders say she never saw the blurb. Anyway, it was only a clerical error. The state of Minnesota has claimed her. Case closed.
Obots say they would accept this explanation. That all they’d need to know is that her own agent had no idea where she was born, and that the proposed book was based on a ‘fact-check error’, and that would be the end of it. They would finally throw in the towel, acknowledge her Minnesotan birth, and quit the battlefield in shame.
They lie.
