He wrote a date that was, iirc, off by three years. One school of thought is that he fried his brains on drugs. He's pretty gleeful about his stoner days—which included some hard drug use. Others said it was a Freudian slip—he was pining for the salad days when people fainted over his teleprompted words.

I still think the confusion over his birth date is the most telling. By the time the average adult is 49, they know their own birth date. So does Obama. He just slipped up that one time and revealed his REAL birth date. Like others, I hope Zullo has proof positive of the deception. It's high time the lid gets blown off this witch's brew of lies.

Compare the date Obama mistakenly wrote (24 May, 2008 - seen at post 65) to:

RFK remark controversy

While campaigning in South Dakota on May 23, Clinton responded to questions about why there was pressure on her to leave the race:[288][289][290][291]

“ ... people have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa and ... I find it curious because it is unprecedented in history. I don’t understand it and between my opponent and his camp and some in the media, there has been this urgency to end this and you know historically that makes no sense, so I find it a bit of a mystery. ... I’ve been around long enough. You know my husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere around the middle of June ... We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. Um, you know I just I don’t understand it. There’s lots of speculation about why it is. ”

Clinton's mention of the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in the context of her rationale for staying in the race drew a quick storm of national attention, as well as strong criticism from the Obama campaign.[288][292] By the end of the day, Clinton issued an apology, saying that the Kennedys were on her mind due to the recent medical condition of Ted Kennedy and that she only used the example because of the June timeline, not, as speculated, to imply an Obama assassination.[292] She had made a similar remark to Time magazine in March.[293]

The following day Obama said he would give Clinton the benefit of the doubt, adding, "I have learned that when you are campaigning for as many months as Senator Clinton and I have been campaigning, sometimes you get careless in terms of the statements that you make. And I think that is what happened here."[294] Throughout the Memorial Day weekend, the Clinton campaign sought to do damage control over the remarks, arguing more strongly that her remarks had been deliberately taken out of context by the news media and the Obama campaign.[295] Campaign spokesperson Howard Wolfson said, “It was unfortunate and unnecessary, and in my opinion, inflammatory, for the Obama campaign to attack Senator Clinton on Friday for these remarks, without obviously knowing the full facts or context.”[295]

Clinton was also criticized for exaggerating the meaningful duration of her husband's 1992 campaign; while he did not clinch the nomination until June of that year, he had effectively won it by mid-March.[296]
