Because unlike you, she has a brain. That provides her the ability to recall work she had done for the man who became president.As far as her mistake, it's a rather easy mistake to make.Who said she guessed?? Maybe she was just mistaken.LOLOLIf Obama told her that because he was so proud of being born in Kenya (according to nuts like you), then why did Obama previously tell others he was Hawaii?Why would she put that in there then?Why would she deny making a mistake? Again, she would have simply stayed quiet. Who even knew she edited his bio until she admitted it? Again, you sound insane.LOLWhy wouldn't they?No, this was truly debunked. The person who edited his bio and put that in came forth with a mea culpa.Because it's been debunked."Obama told his publisher that he was born in Kenya"No, the publishers made up a story that can't be true and you're just a followerThe democrats didn't do that. But you are evidence of why blacks won't vote republican.
He told his publisher he was "born in Kenya" he told his colleges and universities, his grandmother said he was born in Kenya, so did his half brother, are they all lying?
All those stories have been debunked. The only people that continue believing them are white racists that still hang on to the birther lie.
Debunked?
Obama was the first birther, Hillary was the second
More debunked bullshit.
LOLz. It's not "debunked" just because you don't like it
It's debunked because it's been proven to be untrue.
The story was debunked. You have chosen to believe a lie, because you could not deal with the fact that a black man was running America.
Obama told his publisher that he was born in Kenya and that sat there for 20 years. Much later, when it was obvious that Obama had told even his colleges and Universities about his Kenya birth, Obamaroids panicked. They sealed his foreign student educational records, but what to do about the bio he submitted to his publisher? They made the publisher fall on her sword.
See, apparently, all of the authors send in their own biography. Look on the page with Barack "born in Kenya" Obama and you see 2 other writers, neither of whom described where they were born, only Barack did that.
Now, we're to believe that the publisher of her own accord felt that "the first African American President of the Harvard Law Review" was somehow insufficient and she took it upon herself to find out where Barack "born in Kenya" Obama was born and raised, and - darn it- she got it wrong.
You're gullible.
LOL
What a pity. Even after all these years, you still can't prove that.
It's a pretty reasonable explanation for the evidence. Why are you acting like it is not?
Oh, because you NEED to believe that the only possible reason for opposition to anything you support, is
"Evul Wacism".
You guys say that about everything and anything that you don't like. It doesn't actually mean anything any more.
Long before he wanted to be President, he was telling people he was born in Kenya.
Believing him, is not Evul Wacism.
i'm sure they did.
oh, they surely should. ANy resistance to the Agenda, is likely to get them destroyed.
You sound insane.
What resistance? Had she not edited his bio, she would have remained silent on the matter.
What do you think the difference is between a biography and an autobiography?
if she had denied making a mistake, and said that Obama told her that, she would have been seen by people like you, as siding with the Evul Wacist Birthers.
And you people would make her pay for that.
You also didn't answer the question, so here it is again ... What do you think the difference is between a biography and an autobiography?
Because she likely did not make any mistake.
You also didn't answer the question, so here it is again ... What do you think the difference is between a biography and an autobiography?
Why would she put it in there? Presumably because Obama made a point of telling her it, because he was so proud of it.
You also didn't answer the question, so here it is again ... What do you think the difference is between a biography and an autobiography?
Because he was goofy anti-American punk playing with how to be play being an edgy cool anti-American piece of shit.
By "goofy anti-American punk," you mean president of the Harvard Law Review. Because that's what comes to mind when you think of the president of the Harvard Law Review -- "goofy anti-American punk."
Regardless, your hallucinations don't actually answer the question why he would tell one publication he was born in Hawaii but then turn around and tell another publication he was born in Kenya. Nonsensically framing him as a "goofy anti-American punk" is really an excuse to not answer a question for which you obviously have no answer.
And speaking of non-answers .... last time I'll ask before assuming your fear of the answer is preventing you from answering...
What do you think the difference is between a biography and an autobiography?
1. Sure it does. He was trying out different narratives to see which ones were better accepted by his targeted peer group, ie anti-American academics. He was pretty clear about this is some of the excerpts from his autobiography.
2. A biography is a book written about someone. An Autobiography is a book written about someone, written by that person. Neither of these fit the "biographic sketch" of a few paragraphs done for the client list in a booklet of authors for a literary agency .
"bio" is short for "biography," which as you point out is written by someone about someone else.
And "bio" was your term for that pamphlet. So not only do you know he didn't write it, his own publisher said non-athlete clients "almost never" wrote their own bios and their editor said Obama didn't tell her he was born in Kenya.
Leaving you stuck with nothing but your own hallucinogenic conspiries.
1. What are the odds that she would incorrectly guess what country he was from, and it just happened to be where his dad was from?
2. It is not credible to me, that she remembers making such a minor error, twenty years after the fact.
And why wouldn't she recall the work she had done, recalling it only when the issue rose to national discussion?
1. Odd mistake to make. And odd that she picked the country of his father, as where he was from. Seems more like the choice of a young man with father issues, instead of a random mistake.
2. Because it was an unimportant piece of writing that would have taken MINUTES to complete, among YEARS of similar writing, and she remembers it well enough twenty years after the fact to know she did it wrong? NOT CREDIBLE.
She says her mistake was a "fact checking error." Fact checking entails research. Research could have come from Obama and/or from other sources. Researching other sources was entirely in the realm of possibilities. Even then, like now. Though while we have the Internet now, they did have microfiche back then to search newspapers -- and several newspapers had previously written up articles on Obama. I found a couple of these articles which are now on the Internet and found nearly everything she wrote in Obama's bio can be found in these articles...
Following is the complete text from his bio on that pamphlet. I've highlight the text which is found in the NYT in blue and the text found in the Globe in red and purple for both...
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.
Clearly, she did her research. As far as the mistake about Obama being born in Kenya, Obama's father had the same name and also went to Harvard but was born in Kenya. It's entirely plausible she mixed up Obama with his dad while doing her research.
As she said, her mistake was a "fact checking error."
And how would she remember that, twenty years after the fact? How does she know she made the mistake and it is not what Obama told her?
Shit, I quoted the publisher from Acton & Dystel saying folks like Obama almost never wrote their own bio's AND I just showed you nearly everything in his bio had already appeared in newspapers (and much of the rest could have come from other publications I didn't find) -- and yet you still cling to your nutty conspiracy theory.
Again, Both Obama and his father went to Harvard according to the newspaper articles back then ... they both went by the same name, "Barack Obama." You seriously saying it's not entirely plausible she mixed up his birthplace?
1. I'm completely comfortable with the possibility that she wrote it. All that you just put up there about that, was you arguing with voices in your head.
2. What were you doing, on this day, is 2000 at work?
3. Seems unlikely that you would mix up something like that. Dates would be very off. Seems more likely Obama is an anti-American piece of shit.
