Im a conservative but believe Obama was born inHawaii. What is wierd about this is that this booklet was in use as a promo item by his publisher right up until 2007? If this was a repblican candidate/ pres i dont think stuff like this would be dismissed as "crazy." it is a legitimate piece of marketing material used for yrs. Why are people considered racist or nuts for asking what gives? Maybe it was a typo perpetuated for years or a true error but I think it is ok to at least wonder about the inconsistencies.

Are you arguing that this promotional item (created by a woman who acknowledges that the error was hers) trumps the man's birth certificate? Really?

This is just noise.

Either some dumb copyrighter in 1991 got it wrong or it was a stupid marketing ploy.

Just as an aside, you know that Breitbart is dead, right?

What's the matter? Too exhausted to type "I'm rubber, you're glue; whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you?"

Because one would assume they actually read the book of the author they are representing. The fact that the book and the promo say two different things clearly indicates this is a long forgotten paragraph in an underused promo item.

NP here. No, but I think it's reasonable to wonder why Obama didn't catch the error and have it corrected.

Because it is unlikely that he ever saw the promo piece. It is a booklet about all 90 authors. It's not an Obama promo piece.

So a pamphlet trumps an actual birth certificate?

Ive attended conferences where my name is spelled incorrectly on my name tag of reading materials.

using the logic applied to obama, you mouth breathers have every right to raise hell and question the spelling of my name because of an error made by the conference organizers?

furthermore, i could be doubly at fault because i didnt take the time to "correct" this error which is a sign that ive "accepted" that spelling of my name and in turn the name ive written correctly on every application, which is on my drivers license and birth certificate doesnt mean one damn thing. all that is for naught because of ONE instance where you find that tiny little opening to support your bullshit "theory" that you know more than me the correct spelling of my name.

just asking

Why is that reasonable to wonder? You think OP started this thread to debate whether President Obama qualifies for a job as a copyeditor in his literary agency's marketing shop?
