For what it’s worth, some of the reviews are bashing Amazon for distributing propaganda or behaving in a biased way. For the most part, this isn’t true. Anyone of any political persuasion can upload a kindle ebook and distribute it for free. However, Amazon features this book on it’s home page - gives it prominent space and perhaps that’s what some of the comments are lamenting. An anti-Obama book would not have the upper left quadrant of the home page as advertising unless it was “not divisive” and a top selling book in the news.

In the time I took to post, the ratings have changed. 18 5-star reviews versus 48 1-star reviews. I doubt the numbers mean much because Media will take up the gauntlet and drive up voters to positively review the book. I wonder whose decision it was to advertise the book on the front page - I actually don’t know if that is paid ad space.

Amazon doesn’t want an IRS audit. ;-)
