The deal is, no one was fooled for a moment. The pretended, and they still pretend sometimes. It is like North Korea. They pretend to an enemy that is not fooled that this is a truth they will defend to the death, and change for a seconds notice. The actual truth they have no time for. Sometimes it is on their side. Sometimes not. But either way, they defend their view for the moment. Either way, it is maintained so as to defeat the enemy .
Steve_McGarrett;I knew it. Author Jack Cashill several years ago figured out that Ayers was the one who wrote Obama's autobiography 'Dreams Of My Father' by studying his writing techniques and terminology was the same in his other books. The media went out of their way to bash Cashill for even bringing up such a notion. Now Bill Ayers, a unrepentant Marxist terrorist, is admitting he actually wrote Obama's book, the one with the composite girlfriends and all. And Obama stated Ayers was just some guy who lived in his neighborhood he had no affiliation with. Well the truth is out now.
SHOCK CONFESSION: Bill Ayers Reveals He Is Author Of ?Dreams From My Father? in Latest Book | The Gateway Pundit
Here are a lot of people that were fooled. I often wondered why a man would write about a father that abandoned him and his mother two years after he was born. Now I know he didn't and I wonder if he is going to give the millions he made off of the book to the actual author, Bill Ayers.
In discussing Dreams from My Father, Toni Morrison, a Nobel Laureate novelist, has called Obama "a writer in my high esteem" and the book "quite extraordinary." She praised"his ability to reflect on this extraordinary mesh of experiences that he has had, some familiar and some not, and to really meditate on that the way he does, and to set up scenes in narrative structure, dialogue, conversation—all of these things that you don't often see, obviously, in the routine political memoir biography. ... It's unique. It's his. There are no other ones like that."
In an interview for The Daily Beast, the author Philip Roth said he had read Dreams from My Father "with great interests," and commented that he had found it "well done and very persuasive and memorable."
The book "may be the best-written memoir ever produced by an American politician," wrote Time columnist Joe Klein.
In 2008, The Guardian's Rob Woodard wrote that Dreams from My Father "is easily the most honest, daring, and ambitious volume put out by a major US politician in the last 50 years." Michiko Kakutani, the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic for The New York Times, described it as "the most evocative, lyrical and candid autobiography written by a future president."
The audio book edition earned Obama the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album. Five days before being sworn in as President, Obama secured a $500,000 advance for an abridged version of Dreams from My Father for middle-school-aged children
