Obviously the agent that Obama hired has been waiting since 1991 to plant this false information on the public during an election year.

They have betrayed him.

He probably did claim to have been born in Kenya, to fraudulently receive financial aid for his schooling. This fits with his refusal to release his college records.

:wave:

He had been updating his profile up to 2007, notice he updated the change in the title of his book. Funny he never changed the 'born in Kenya' part until he started running for President.

April 3, 2007

BARACK OBAMA is the junior Democratic senator from Illinois and was the dynamic keynote speaker at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. He was also the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. He was born in Kenya to an American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister and was raised in Indonesia, Hawaii, and Chicago. His first book, DREAMS FROM MY FATHER: A STORY OF RACE AND INHERITANCE, has been a long time New York Times bestseller.

Weird how he would say that, and then travel back in time to post his birth announcement in the Hawaiian newspapers.

Except that his profile was updated with the new title of his book.

One that went unnoticed for 16 years? :giggle:

Did you not read the link to Obama's profile from 2007 in which it is claimed he was born in Kenya?

Ohh, and Miriam Goderich didn't work for the agency in 1991.

Curious that they would issue the 'fact checking error' claim after refusing to speak to the reporters of the initial story when contacted stating 'they don't comment on Obama'.

This is just awesome. Miriam has proven herself a liar by claiming it was her fact checking error in 1991 when she did not work for the agency until 1995.

Miriam Goderich and Jane Dystel have been partners since 1995 and they work closely as an agenting team to generate book ideas,

That link doesn't say anything about her not being there in 1991.

They didn't become partners until 1995, but she worked for the agency before then.

Quote:
From there, she went on to become Publisher of World Almanac Publications, where she created her own imprint.

When she joined the agency that would soon become Acton and Dystel, Inc., she quickly developed a reputation for honesty, forthrightness, hard work, and real commitment to her authors and their writing careers. In 1994, with a growing roster of clients, she founded Jane Dystel Literary Management, which became Dystel & Goderich Literary Management in 2003

Could be, that company didn't even exist before 1994.

So the story I guess is Miriam worked for Acton & Dystel prior to partnering with Jane Dystel when Jane started Jane Dystel Literary Management.

Where did the agency get the facts for the bio to begin with?

The standard procedure would be to get that information from their client, would it not?

All very well, but is that an affidavit?!?

Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate


Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.

snopes.com: AP Reports Obama as 'Kenyan-Born'

Quote:
the identification of Barack Obama as "Kenyan-born" was added to the Sunday Standard's version of the AP story by someone else (who misspelled the politician's given name as "Barrack" in the process) and is apparently unique to that publication. The full text of the "Jack Ryan Abandons Senate Bid" article as originally issued by the Associated Press is retrievable from the LexisNexis archive of global news sources, and it contains no reference (in the lead-in or elsewhere) to Barack Obama's being "Kenyan-born":
