Author Topic: The Vetting - Exclusive - Obama's Literary Agent in 1991 Booklet: (Read 17747 times)

Note from Senior Management:

Andrew Breitbart was never a "Birther," and Breitbart News is a site that has never advocated the narrative of "Birtherism." In fact, Andrew believed, as we do, that President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.

Yet Andrew also believed that the complicit mainstream media had refused to examine President Obama's ideological past, or the carefully crafted persona he and his advisers had constructed for him.

It is for that reason that we launched "The Vetting," an ongoing series in which we explore the ideological background of President Obama (and other presidential candidates)--not to re-litigate 2008, but because ideas and actions have consequences.

It is also in that spirit that we discovered, and now present, the booklet described below--one that includes a marketing pitch for a forthcoming book by a then-young, otherwise unknown former president of the Harvard Law Review.

It is evidence--not of the President's foreign origin, but that Barack Obama's public persona has perhaps been presented differently at different times.

***

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." ... http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/05/17/The-Vetting-Barack-Obama-Literary-Agent-1991-Born-in-Kenya-Raised-Indonesia-Hawaii

Out of his own mouth.

He's either a liar or a non-citizen.

I think he's both.

It will be interesting to see how this develops. IF he's found to not be a natural born American everything he's done while president is null and void. THAT should wake some people up!

A much needed haircut and attitude adjustment trumps everything.

I think he is a natural born citizen but I think he lied in college about where he was born. That is why nothing has been released from college. I think his whole life is a "composite", just like his girlfriend in his book. He is a work of fiction.

It's OK to lie to further your agenda if you're a democrat....just ask Bill Clinton.

Yeah, and also about his religion. It all has to do with different gravy trains arriving at his station, from getting into a school for Muslims in Indonesia to playing multiple minority cards at Harvard (And Elizabeth Warren demonstrates perfectly what a great scam that has been).

Still doesn't stop all the money being spent, the jobs being lost, and some of the rules being changed.

I think that the final word on this is that Obama was Elizabeth Warren before Elizabeth Warren was cool. He 'exaggerated' his origins for personal gain.

However, this means the 'Birthers' are no longer entirely kooky. Obama himself said he was Kenyan-Born.

He may well be a citizen. He may even have been born in Hawaii, and the statement by the literary agent just a falsehood, or a convenient lie at the time.

However by the known facts of his birth, and the only definition of "natural born citizen" ever recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court, Barack Obama cannot possibly be a natural born citizen of the United States. Obama's father was Kenyan, and transfered allegiance to Britain to Obama upon birth, a fact recognized by Obama himself.

Alexander Hamilton's original draft of the Article II requirement for President indicated only "born citizen", not natural born citizen. Hamilton's sketch indicates in 40 Article IX, section 1:

"No person shall be eligible to the office of President of the United States
unless he be now a Citizen of one of the States,
or hereafter be born a Citizen of the United States."

Note, the 2nd line even has a preliminary reference to the "grandfather clause".

However, that early Hamilton draft was abandoned. Over this time period, the election of the President was changed from being elected by Congress, to being elected by the people themselves, with "natural born" being a further security to prevent foreign influence, as indicated in a letter by John Jay to George Washington.

Mere birth on U.S. soil, or "born citizen", does not provide any security at all from foreign influence. In fact we've repeatedly seen the effect of this foreign influence in Obama's actions.

Natural Born Defined

When its all said and done, it will turn out that everything the birther's claimed about this guy is going to be correct. Just like John Kerry and the Swift Boat Vets. I mean, why would this guy go to such trouble to keep his past hidden? Both Obama and Kerry claimed "transparency" would be hallmarks of how they conduct themselves, but of course the exact opposite is the case with both. They both also hypocritically called on opponents to be transparent. I find that if the Dem squirms and ratchets up their rhetoric while refusing to release info to the public, then they are lying, and the opponents are correct.

That would be nice....except for one little problem. It would have to go to the Supreme Court and I don't think either one of them would do the right thing and recuse themselves. Hey, we're talking damn liberal judges here, you know.

ETA: We might be able to undo everything he has done but we're stuck, stuck, stuck with the added 5 trillion in debt.

1 of the comments from the Daily Mail's article on this, someone from Florida said "who cares, he's a damn good President". Can you believe that? an American with no idea what the Constitution says!
