What newspapers were they? Can you name them? you have links?There is no evidence Obama was even aware of that pamphlet stating he was born in Kenya. Even before that pamphlet was produced, several newspapers ran stories on him. Every single one stated he was born in Hawaii. His literary agency took responsibility for the error in his birthplace and said he provided no information to them about him being born in Kenya. The questions have been answered.There is no reliable source of which I'm aware of Barak Obama stating he was born in Kenya. However, Obama's literary agents, Dystel & Goderich Literary Management company, in his official client biography, was touting that he was born in Kenya as early as 1991. It was still reporting that Obama was born in Kenya as late as 2008.
I have no doubt he was aware of this and found some literary value in representing himself as foreign-born. However, the fact that he did not address this possible oversight until his campaign was in full-swing leaves a lot of unanswered questions.
Did he deliberately misrepresent himself before the election? Did he misrepresent himself after the election? Only one of those can be true.
