Lucrative Book Deals Might Finance the Obamas Post-White House Life
White House Letter
By GARDINER HARRIS SEPT. 4, 2016
WASHINGTON After he is out of the White House, President Obama has said that he wants to become a venture capitalist, own part of an N.B.A. franchise and avoid taking off his shoes during security screenings at commercial airports.
All of those goals, serious or not, might soon be achievable if Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, sign post-presidency book contracts for what literary agents and major publishers say could amount to $20 million to $45 million more than enough to pay the estimated $22,000 monthly rent for the nine-bedroom home they will occupy in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington and foot the bill for flights on private jets. (Mr. Obama has said he would like to avoid commercial flights once he surrenders Air Force One.)
His is going to be easily the most valuable presidential memoir ever, said Raphael Sagalyn of the ICM/Sagalyn Literary Agency, who predicted that Mr. Obama could earn as much as $30 million with a two- or three-book contract. And I think Michelle Obama has the opportunity to sell the most valuable first lady memoir in history.

Obama will, ala Clintons, fleece the loyal libs for a prosperous future.
And then he'll die...and then what happens? Obama, meet SHTF.
I Know Why The Choom Gang Sings
Book Of Lies. The first book title will be about fags as usual. that’s all this closet homo talked about..gay marriage, fag marriage, etc
Most people smart enough to be able to read won’t spend money on a book by these two.
Or they might be fleeing the country once the American people find out that BHO is not a US citizen
Bribes
Nothing more I want to know about these two.
I will be glad to hear and see the last of them.
Money - there is no doubt in my mine that after 8 years in the big house he has accumulated millions, most of which is stashed away on foreign soil hidden away. Think of the millions of stimulus money that disappeared, and all of the secret deals, his mentor Soros, etc. And then to maintain appearances he will follow the Clinton’s lead and charge an arm and leg for speeches.
Most on his book deal will be the advance, ‘cause not many will buy it other than to count the flagrant lies contained within..
Some how I feel those books may never exist, its more smoke and mirrors

Sounds about right. Yep, I read it (the part here).
Gag me...
I’ll bet a lot of them end up in school libraries. “Academia” can’t allow its messiah’s “books” to end up in the bargain bins.
Exactly!
Maybe he will be more successful as an author than he was as a president. Lord knows he was an utter failure as a President
Obama: “Rules for Rump Rangers”
Chewie: “Europe on $300,000 a Day”
Sushi & Malaria: “Spoiled Rotten Brats”
It sounds like Raphael Sagalyn might be some kind of a leftwing, commie lib loon.
Venture capitalist? Lmao, he meant to say crony capitalist.
