Product Description

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 naive, 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.

1 out of 5 stars Jerome R. Corsi is the Archie Bunker of this decade.   October 7, 2008
This book is so full of extreme prejudices, half truths, fear mongering, and twisted facts, I am surprised it is published as non-fiction.

It seems more like a satire on right-wing politics. Jerome R. Corsi is the Archie Bunker of this decade. Some people loved Archie and agreed with everything he said. Most knew his views were an exaggerated caricature of a prejudiced, out of touch man. (Look at some of his other books and you can see some of his other rantings.)




5 out of 5 stars He's not who he pretends to be ........................   October 7, 2008

Why hasn't the Obama people said anything about this book? I know a lot of Democrats that don't want him to win .......... and have a lot of political connections, but are between a rock and a hard place and are supporting him even though he's not qualified.

Wake up people before its took late. He's not who he pretends to be.



1 out of 5 stars Chock Full of Lies   October 7, 2008
 5 out of 11 found this review helpful

Its a shame more people don't actually learn the facts behind things. This is certainly the case here, as anyone with a spare 30 seconds could quickly find that this book, according the highly-reputable [...], is "a mishmash of unsupported conjecture, half-truths, logical fallacies and outright falsehoods."

[...]

"Corsi cites opinion columns and unsourced, anonymous blogs as if they were evidence of factual claims. Where he does cite legitimate news sources, he frequently distorts the facts. In some cases, Corsi simply ignores readily accessible information when it conflicts with his arguments."

There's more to read there, and its pretty disturbing that such a complete and total hack job could have a book on the NYT best seller's list.

Read with all the salt in India.



5 out of 5 stars Very Important Documentary   October 7, 2008
 4 out of 16 found this review helpful

Jerome Corsi has provided a very insightful work on the Politician We are evaluating as potentially the next President of Our United States. There are many questions on Mr. Obama that is not being provided thru normal channels.
It is insightful and very helpful in understanding Who Senator Obama really is beyond his campaign generated persona.



5 out of 5 stars Will allow you to (finally) know the REAL Barack Obama!   October 7, 2008

I don't believe anyone who gave this 1 star--actually READ this well-documented, totally researched, awesomely detailed book.
I suspect the Obama-Robots logged on just to 'diss' this book--just like they've been going to Homeless Shelters in Ohio--to get the 'numbers' up!?
Reading this book was a TOTAL eye-opener.
I changed political parties (was a Democrat for 30 years) andwill vote accordingly.
WHY?
I'm dismayed at the way the entire DNC and the Mainstream Media has ignored and brushed aside so much about this candidate (Get All the details by reading this book!) Any Conservative, aka, Republican, would have been dropped from the ticket, in a heartbeat, if they had HALF this much 'bad' history!
