From the Publisher:
In this thoroughly researched and documented book, the #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry explains why the extreme leftism of an Obama presidency would leave the United States weakened, diminished and divided, why Obama must be defeated—and how he can be. THE OBAMA NATION Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality Barack Obama stepped onto the national political stage when the then-Illinois State senator addressed the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Soon after Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate, author Jerome Corsi began researching Obama's personal and political background. Scrupulously sourced with more than 600 footnotes, THE OBAMA NATION is the result of that research. By tracing Obama's career and influences from his early years in Hawaii and Indonesia, the beginnings of his political career in Chicago, his voting record in the Illinois legislature, his religious training and his adoption of Christianity through to his recent involvement in Kenyan politics, his political advisors and fundraising associates and his meteoric campaign for president, Jerome Corsi shows that an Obama presidency would, in his words, be “a repeat of the failed extremist politics that have characterized and plagued Democratic Party politics since the late 1960s.” In this stunning and comprehensive new book, the reader will learn about: -Obama's extensive connections with Islam and radical politics, from his father and step-father's Islamic backgrounds, to his Communist and socialist mentors in Hawaii and Chicago, to his long-term and close associations with former Weather Underground heroes William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn—associations much closer than heretofore revealed by the press -Barack and Michelle's 20-year-long religious affiliation with the black-liberation theology of former Trinity United Church of Christ Reverend Jeremiah Wright, whose sermons have always been steeped in a rage first expressed by Franz Fanon , Stokely Carmichael and Malcolm X, a rage that Corsi shows has deep meaning for Obama -Obama's continuing connections with Kenya, the homeland of his father, through his support for the candidacy of Raila Odinga, the radical socialist presidential contender who came to power amid Islamist violence and church burnings -Obama's involvement in the slum-landlord empire of the Chicago political fixer Tony Rezko, who helped to bankroll Obama's initial campaigns and to purchase of Barack and Michelle's dream-home property. -the background and techniques of the Obama campaign's cult of personality, including the derivation of the words “hope” and change” -Obama's far-left domestic policy, his controversial votes on abortion, his history of opposition to the Second Amendment, his determination to raise capital-gains taxes, his impractical plan to achieve universal health care, and his radical plan to tax Americans to fund a global-poverty-reduction program -Obama's naïve, anti-war, anti-nuclear foreign-policy, predicated on the reduction of the military, the eradication of nuclear weapons and an overconfidence in the power of his personality, as if belief in change alone could somehow transform international politics, achieve nuclear-weapons disarmament and withdrawal from Iraq without adverse consequences, for us, for the Iraqis or for Israel. Meticulously researched and documented, THE OBAMA NATION is the definitive source for information on why and how Barack Obama must be defeated—not by invective and general attacks, but by detailed arguments that are well-researched and fact-based.

This is one of the many outstanding books written about Obama and his crowd. Dick Morris is another good writer.

One of the first to expose the truth about Barack Obama: his past, his associations with America-hating radicals and his never ending lies. Corsi has paid a price for his courage. If more people had read this book before the election, we might have been spared this awful presidency. Another fascinating book about the real Barack Obama is Obamanutz: A Cult Leader Takes the White House Obamanutz takes a unique approach in understanding Obama's psychology and is well researched.

This book is definitely worth your consideration
So America is at a new low with a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER leading us
The most inexperienced and least qualified of all presidents.
Never held office previously
Was only a Junior Senator with little experience with the legislative branch
Never proposed any substantial ideas or innovative bills
Never a CEO or in an executive position
Has proven to be a polarizing figure with radical, anti American; anti white associates
Claims victory for anything positive, but STILL blames all mishaps on Bush (thats getting old)
This man is now a US President; not because he is qualified, but because his PUBLIC RELATIONS campaign succeeded at pushing the mantra of change... WITHOUT EVER DEFINING WHAT THE CHANGE WAS.
Now that the honeymoon is over, it is clear to even the liberal element that this was a mistake and he is not what his campaign portrayed him.
If you want to discuss real change, take a look at a real president, like that of Ronald Reagan. There are some fine audio books (Reagan in his own words, Reagan Diaries), this is for the serious scholar; and sell off your obama memorbilia on ebay for a $1, that's all it's worth.

This fascinating book prompted me to examine what I thought was my own birth certificate - lo and behold, I discovered that I, too, have a "Certificate of Live Birth." So I must have been born in Kenya, just like Obama! It is an indication of how deep-seated this conspiracy is, that when I confronted my parents with this information, they insisted that I was born in California.
What Corsi fails to point out is that Obama is not even the President of the United States! Sure, he is referred to in that way, however, the official title of the President, used within government (especially by the Secret Service), is "POTUS," and Obama is never referred to in that manner. For those who remember the 1970s TV show "Happy Days," this was the real name of the character nicknamed "Potsie." His full name was used in episode 157, "Graduation Day," in which the characters graduate from high school and are called by their real names; Richard Cunningham, Arthur Funicello, and Potus Weber.
Therefore, the actual President of the United States, the POTUS, is Anson Williams. Corsi was negligent for missing this fact, which is why I gave this book one star.

Jerome R. Corsi's well documented perspective into then candidate Barrack Obama's leftist politics is even more compelling nearly a year after its initial pre-election publication.
It appears as if an entire nation was swayed by Obama's narcissistic charisma & rhetoric. Hype got him elected, but eight months after his inauguration, Obama Nation is becoming a socialistic abomination; and a nation is divided as a result of this. Is this the "change" we were hoping for?
Corsi's warning went unheeded by a nation & a liberal press that wants to believe Obama is The One. At this point in his Presidency, it appears he's pulling a "number" on an increasingly disillusioned America; how's that for being The One?
