Obama's Literary Agent in 1991 Booklet: 'Born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii'

Breitbart News has obtained a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama's then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel, which touts Obama as "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii."

The booklet, which was distributed to "business colleagues" in the publishing industry, includes a brief biography of Obama among the biographies of eighty-nine other authors represented by Acton & Dystel.

It also promotes Obama's anticipated first book, Journeys in Black and White--which Obama abandoned, later publishing Dreams from My Father instead.

"Barack Obama, the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii. The son of an American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister, he attended Columbia University and worked as a financial journalist and editor for Business International Corporation. He served as project coordinator in Harlem for the New York Public Interest Research Group, and was Executive Director of the Developing Communities Project in Chicago’s South Side. His commitment to social and racial issues will be evident in his first book, Journeys in Black and White."

I think what Breitbart has proposed at least implicitly is very reasonable: obama was born in Hawaii, but got into harvard based on claiming foreign birth. Sort of an extra-affirmative action. Who knows? Maybe he claimed to be a Cherokee, also (sort of a Harvard thing I guess...).

This would explain why he doesn’t want his school records released.

Note also: just b/c he was born in Hawaii doesn’t mean that the birth cert the WH offered was real. I think that was likely forged but for different reasons. Probably something to do with the father....as has been posited here by many.

obama is hiding something, and we just don’t know what it is.

what we do know, is that he is not smart...in fact he is an imbecile. we know he is the king of affirmative action, and we know that he hates America, and that he has created several layers of false narratives about his past and has profited handsomely off of those false narratives. we also know that he is not particularly into “real” women...composites, make believe, and he-women like Michelle he’s ok with.

bottom line: obama is hiding lots of stuff for many reasons.

(but all that said...it might also be the case that he was born in kenya....)
