Barack Obama's efforts to downplay his past have taken a serious blow now that Aaron Klein's exposé of the president's connections with extremists and America-haters is climbing best-seller charts everywhere.
This week, Klein's "The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and Other Anti-American Extremists" hit No. 22 on the New York Times' best-seller list for hardcover, non-fiction titles.
As WND has reported, the book has also been a huge hit with the online book retailer Amazon.com.
Earlier this week, "The Manchurian President" climbed all the way to the No. 1 position on both Amazon.com's "Hot New Releases in Politics" list and its "Hot New Releases in Non-Fiction" list. The book also grabbed the top spot among bestsellers in the Politics category and ranked third among all non-fiction titles sold by the retail giant.
"The Manchurian President" is the result of two years of solid investigations into those within Obama's inner circle as well as the president's shadowy younger years.
With more than 800 citations, the brand-new, autographed title from WND senior reporter and WABC radio host Aaron Klein bills itself as the most exhaustive investigation ever performed into Obama's political background and radical ties. Klein's co-author is historian and researcher Brenda J. Elliott.
"The Manchurian President" also unmasks, exclusively, important aspects of Obama's carefully covered-up college years, with new details of his student career at Occidental College and later at Columbia University.
Obama's associations with the Nation of Islam, Black Liberation Theology and black political extremists are also revealed, with extensive new information on the subjects.

Waiting for the NYT Book Review magazine to review it...
Just ordered my copy before Obama nationalizes Amazon.
A third of the country will see this as a good thing.
Gosh, who knew?!? /s
I just ordered two copies. One for me and one to give away.
The irony of this is that the MSM spent no effort at all trying to dig out and/or report any of the information in this book, but it will undoubtedly spend lots of resources trying to discredit it. They are now really no different than Pravda used to be.
Not to mention the book publishers.
You are a very thoughtful person. I have family in Texas. What a great state.
My third novel features a fictional Manchurian President named Jamal Tambor.

One big difference is the astonishing fact that, unlike state-owned-&-run Pravda, the MSM is the censured, authoritarian mouthpiece of their own drug-fried, mentally-incapacitated free will.
MSM's morally incapacitated free will...
Because I will be on Glenn Beck June 1 to discuss the new book (available . . . June 1), we expect that to go into the top 10 of the NYTimes, as well. That one is called Seven Events that Made America America.
I don't know which seven events you picked, but if I were to pick, near, if not the top, of the list would be the First and Second Great Awakenings, the turning around of America's underlying spiritual strength. (D.D. Eisenhower once said America is great because it is good.) Another spiritual awakening, not to todays false religious/spirit gods, but to the true God and Jesus Christ of the Bible, is what is so desperately needed now.
Wow! If that thing is at those rankings in NY Times and Amazon, people are really, really catching on.
Too bad it’s two years two late. Heck, anyone here at FR who was paying attention probably know most of the stuff in that book then.
Better late than never, I suppose.
BTTT
Looks like its sold out on Amazon, says shipping 3-6 weeks.
I just bought it this very minute on www.half.com. There are also eBay sellers selling the book, so it’s available there. Amazon is NOT the only place to find the book. Even Barnes & Noble carry it, although they purposely hide it out of liberal shame in a remote back corner of the store. We should all buy the book, not only to read it, but to support REAL JOURNALISM such as that practiced by Aaron Klein.
Also confront the bookstore. Ask why a best seller isn’t displayed at the front of the store the way the liberal and Bush-bashing books are.
