How can your own literary agent misidentified your Birthplace? And you did not correct “the mistake” before after 15 years.
Obama’s former literary agency misidentified his birthplace as Kenya while trying to promote the then-Harvard Law grad as an author in 1991.
According to a promotional booklet produced by the agency, Acton & Dystel, to showcase its roster of writers, Obama was “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.”
Miriam Goderich edited the text of the bio; she is now a partner at the Dystel & Goderich agency, which lists Obama as one of its current clients.
“This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me–an agency assistant at the time,” Goderich wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News.
“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.

My comment:
The good old story never dies.
It is not easy to say were you have been born. You simply can not remember. You have been told by someone else.
To falsify a birth certificate is not difficult.
Strangely enough, Obama did not mind his own literature agent telling a small white lie before Barak Hussein decided to run for the White House. Or maybe the agent did not tell a lie…..for professional liars.
Anyhow. All the falsehood written about Obama being a Christian, fell flat the day the President endorsed gay marriage, and said: “it just feels right for me”. So much for the respect for the Word of God.

According to US law, if the mother is a citizen, the child is a citizen, or we would have a LOT of missionary kids who aren’t US citizens. As an attorney, Obama should have known this and didn’t have to lie.
The problem, Ant is that the Constitution specifies that a contender for the Presidency must be a “naturally born citizen”. Lower offices do not require that the candidate be born here. If Obama was born in Kenya, he is not eligible for the Presidency. I personally think that it was a fiction that he was “born in Kenya” and a son of a “cabinet minister”, Obama Sr. It may have been invented to make him seem more exotic. There is apparently no official record of Ann Dunham’s marriage to Obama Sr. Nor is there any official record of their divorce.
There is a persistent rumor that Obama’s real father is Chicagoan, Frank Marshall Davis. Obama mentions “Frank” in his autobiographical book, Dreams From My Father, as having been influential in his life. Davis was part of the radical left (as well as being associated with various members of the Black Muslim community) in Chicago and was also associated with Bill Ayers, Valerie Jarett and was even a friend of Malcolm X. Ayers was on the faculty at Columbia University, at the time of Obama’s application to and acceptance by Columbia.
t the Dunham household,esemblance to Frank Davis.
very interesting, Ellen. Thanks for that
Any and ”all” reports about Pharaoh Obama’s past, present etc eligibility to and/or where he was born or not born, is and will remain ‘exactly what was ‘told’ to be put in public! They have a complete group of people to ‘rewrite history’ and make sure the past if not favorable to the masses will be ‘fixed’…Fact! Anything else is only what people believe by the reports they read to stir up division/or acceptance. Kind of like…another saga in the Fantasy World they live in! Sad but also very True!
What was cut off from the above post was the mention of Davis being something of a fixture at the Dunham household after Davis moved to Hawaii. Barack Obama was living with his grandparents there and attending Punahou School at the time—a private prep school. Obama bears much more of a resemblance to Frank Davis than he does to Obama Sr. (to whom he bears no resemblance at all). There are some who even feel that Davis was a cover for the identity of Obama’s real biological father, Malcolm X. Just looking at appearances, that would be easy to believe as Obama bears a startling resemblance to Malcolm X.
2 things….
1..Pharaoh Obama’s credibility (with me) fell flat a long time before he showed his true colors to all believers…
2.. What difference does it make where, or how, or even if he was born? Those who claim they can do something about it …should have before he was ever admitted into any Official Capacity whether it be President of The United States of America or ‘Your Local Dog or Trash Collector’…it wasn’t so all the hype is only to get ones eyes off of what they really are doing…’cramming a Liar, Thief, Defiler of Mankind, supporter of Evil and Blasphemer of The Word of God and Spreader of Hatred towards Israel, in the faces of all who breathe whether they be Saint or Sinner in America or out..Blessed be The Name of The Lord Jesus Christ forevermore!
