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

Breitbart ^

[AtlasStalled]

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."

Mitt Romney can make this a page one issue tomorrow. All he has to do is mention it in a press release or campaign appearance and the mainstream media will go absolutely berserk. Of course, Romney will take a beating in the media but like the homosexual marriage issue, it will drive even more voters to the Romney camp. It all depends on whether Romney has the balls.

“I’m not holding my breath”

Didn’t the CPAKS just hint they were taking the Gloves off. Maybe they got the heads up and will be doing the dirty work?

Whether he was born in Hawaii or Kenya, Obama has claimed both at various times to advance himself, and both cannot be true. This story, at the least, shows BO’s utter lack of veracity.

If John McCain was eligible to run for President, then so is my daughter.

But John McCain was not eligible and the Senate knew it. That was the reason for SR 551.

You are not the only one to serve bub, and I didn’t serve in order for the Commies to take over the country by fraud.

I agree with his strategy of staying focused on the economy and fiscal matters. Stay above this and let a campaign aide do the leak followed by a public admonishment for that aide.

I suspect there are some Democrats behind the scenes who are going to be more than willing to get more info on this out.....especially if the internal polls look bad.

“This story, at the least, shows BO’s utter lack of veracity”

No need to be Politically correct. he is a stoned faced liar at best.

[mkboyce]

Yep...this should be played-up and both whispered in the halls and shouted from the roof tops!

Drip, drip, drip...

Look what its done to ‘Running Joke’, Ms. Fauxcahontas herself, Elizabeth Warren.

OMIGOSH! There’s a BUNCH of oldie/but goodie freepers on this thread whom I haven’t seen in a longggg time. Great to see all of you (the ones from the Clinton years)!

[mkjessup]

It was an Omen/Antichrist reference.

I know MrB, I saw all three of the original Omen episodes in the theatre. My prior insult to the Kenyan dipsh*t stands, regardless. lol

[MMaschin]

That would agree with that.

The main requirement, in my mind, has always been that of sole allegiancece.

[BluH2o]

The only people who see information like this are Freepers and other conservatives who patronize conservative web sites.

Don't underrate the fact this is a headline banner on Drudge.
You may recall Drudge broke the Lewinski story ...

Someone claiming to be an editorial assistant posted this comment:

Miriam Goderich issued the following statement to Political Wire:

“You’re undoubtedly aware of the brouhaha stirred up by Breitbart about the erroneous statement in a client list Acton & Dystel published in 1991 (for circulation within the publishing industry only) that Barack Obama was born in Kenya. This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me — an agency assistant at the time. There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more.”

Thanks AtlasStalled.

Thank you for posting this! This is what I have read and how I see natural born by air or by sea for our servicemen. They should have greater respect given to their children then some foreign ass squatting in our territory! Now I’m just furious.....

You are welcome! I am astonished at how many people want to argue about this. It is insane to regard the children of our soldiers as anything other than "natural citizens". Their parents are out there sacrificing for us, so how dare we challenge their loyalty?

John McCain's father was an Admiral in our armed forces sent to Panama to SERVE THE NATION. It is disgusting to think that some would reject his son as insufficiently loyal, or insufficiently American to be President.

[BluH2o]

Being special/different opened doors for him until his political aspirations threatened to close those doors. So he discarded the old narrative and disassociated himself with those who had helped him create it. Then he set about creating a new narrative - one that fit his presidential aspirations - and associated himself with those who could best help him achieve his goal.

Exactly ... the narrative changed to accommodate his next ambition.

There is a hugh seat-belt enforcement push going on here in the State of Indiana.

LEOs are cracking down on evil people who allow themselves to be thrown out of their vehicles on impact. series stuff.

Meanwhile, a lying Marxist impostor occupies our WH and he and his America hating wife continue to feast on our Treasury...as they has done for years. No, big deal though.

Betcha he doesnt have a wear a seat belt either if he dont want to.

[hoosiermama]

IMO The meme: “ Is he lying now or was he lying then??” should be used, distributed and promoted any way we can.

[JennysCool]

Problem is, it wasn't just the pamphlet. The same language was used on the Dystel website for the next 16 years.

[Sir Napsalot]

Well, to be fair, at the time it was Michelle Malkin (Ed and AP’s boss) and some others in the ‘conservative circle’ made that ultimate decision.

The same as the cigar-smoke-filled room for the elites (on both sides) to decide for the great unwashed what is worth or not worth pursuing.

[Red Steel]

I'm starting to believe he was born in Kenya.

Yes, that has always been the likely case. And more documentation. :-)
