Excerpts:


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."

The booklet, which was distributed to "business colleagues" in the publishing industry, includes a brief biography of Obama among the biographies of eighty-nine other authors represented by Acton & Dystel.

The promotion of Obama reads: Barack Obama, the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii. The son of an American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister, he attended Columbia University and worked as a financial journalist and editor for Business International Corporation. He served as project coordinator in Harlem for the New York Public Interest Research Group, and was Executive Director of the Developing Communities Project in Chicago’s South Side. His commitment to social and racial issues will be evident in his first book, Journeys in Black and White..

    Neither, really. One can be born in Kenya, and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii (a US State, btw), and still be a citizen of the US. Unless his mother had renounced her US citizenship, he would have had dual citizenship.
    I don't think this case has been proven either way. Unfortunately, we now must deal with the fact that he is the current President, and vote him out based upon other factors that really matter - the issues.

    He can be a citizen but is not elligible to run for POTUS.
  • susan Angus 2012/05/19 14:05:15

    The key is in the definition of "natural born." That does not necessarily mean born on US soil, but can be interpreted to mean born of parents who are citizens of the US. Those citizens who are not "natural born" are those who have immigrated to this country and have been granted citizenship through the immigration process.
  • Angus susan 2012/05/20 11:04:09
    Angus
    His father was not an American. PERIOD
  • susan Angus 2012/05/20 16:28:29
    susan
    NO, but his mother was. Go back to the various wars this country has had troops in. Many of our soldiers married spouses in other countries, and even had children born in other countries. Those children are "natural born" US citizens by virtue of their birth to one parent with US citizenry.
  • Angus susan 2012/05/21 19:57:20
    Angus
    Nope. You're wrong

    The term "Natural Born Citizen" refers to US Constitution Art. II, Sec. 1, Cl. 5
    It clearly states that both parents had to be US citizens and the Location of birth had to have been on the Mainland. A ruling of that was issued in two cases:

    Minor v. Happersett
    (1874) 21 Wall. 162, 166-168

    Perkins v. Elg,
    307 U.S. 325 (1939)

    So, provided that the booklet can be validated 100% it will present an interesting challenge for Obama's handlers.

    1. The booklet is telling the truth and Obama truly is not eligible to president.

    2. The booklet is a hype job in which Obama was not born in Kenya but it made for a better story line so it's what was put out. Obama can claim that he had nothing to do with it but to think that he had no knowledge of the booklet and the bio is simply ignorant. If it's a hype job then it's further evidence of Obama's willingness to do or say whatever to further his own ambitions.

    Remember the guest book date error in of 2011 in which Obama signed the guest book May 24, 2008? Everyone makes a mistake as far as the day date goes from time to time but whens the last time you missed the year by 3 years? While the motivation for this is not known it definitely shows Obama's willingness to change history for some perceived benefit.

    The MSM / LSM isn't going to touch this no doubt as it would prove their complicity in not properly vetting Obama. If it is proven to be accurate (whether now or 40 years from now) Obama will hold two very distinct honors in history. The first African American president (which I don't buy because he touted his bi-racial heritage in 2008) and the fir...

    The media painted themselves in the corner with Obama. The more we find out about Obama and the failure of the media to report these things the less credibility the media has. The less credibility they have will translate into less viewers. Less viewers results in fewer sponsor / advertisers which results in less revenue. They may have effectively just cut their own throats and all the talking heads may find themselves without their multimillion dollar salaries.

    I have absolutely NO doubt Obama is a complete plant, a fictitious "person", a usurper. The fact that no "republican" will touch this leads me to conclusions about them, as well.

    Obama gets a "free pass" on any lie he wants+ needs to tell ....his supporters say anything is OK as its all about those dream promises he makes and if /when they never come true its "not his fault"
    being liberal is ever so easy and involves no thought at all - in fact thinking gets in the way of being a liberal.

    As New York magazine noted, the article caused a stir in conservative circles, drawing commentary from the Drudge Report and other popular websites.

    However, the woman who wrote Obama's biography in the pamphlet said Thursday that she had misidentified Obama's place of birth.

    "This was nothing more than a fact-checking error by me -- an agency assistant at the time," Miriam Goderich, who worked for the literary agency Acton & Dystel, told 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."
