About this product

Product Information

In this thoroughly researched and documented book, the #1New York Timesbestselling co-author ofUnfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerryexplains 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. 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 Nationis 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 Nationis 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.

  • Interesting Title With Given Explanation...

    I found this book on eBay quite by accident. I wasn't looking for it. It is a book about our now President that explores all of his past starting with long before he was born. It does give an excellent time line & is very easy to read. There is a major amount of background on President Obama if true, most people do not know. Since I have no way to verify any of this information on this man, it would be hard for me to prove whether the book was fact or fiction. I do believe that you should not believe everything that you read. & you should not be afraid to read this book. My suggestion is simply this. Knowledge is power & more is better if you can handle truth or lies. Read the book for yourself as I did & you decide for yourself.

  • Unfit for Publication

    This "book" is full of unfounded innuendos, unsubstantiated bloggers opinions, outright falsehoods, and horrendous smears. This overeducated, pompous, promulgator of untruths who calls himself a nonfiction author has written a terribly fictional, as well as false, story of Senator Obama. As in his previous outings against John Kerry, he projects upon his "subjects" his own portrait (like Dorian Grey), an unmitigated, horrifying scoundrel who is the exact portrait he paints of others. It is, indeed, a sad commentary about our society and our publishing enterprises who can and do apply such appallingly low standards of scholarship and decency to "so-called" nonfiction books. This book should never have been published, but since it has been, should be ignored by all decent people.

  • The Obama Nation

    Great information about Obama who grew up in one disfunctional family. Corsi tells all that Obama left out of both of his two books. The more I read, the more I learned that this man if not right for the job as POTUSA. I purchased this book because the MSM (which is in the tank for Obama) will not report the truth about Obama. Corsi has great footnotes and research which tells the truth about Obama, but there is still a lot that we still don't know. Very easy read! A must read and great buy on Ebay!

  • Fitting Title for the subject

    I purchased this book because I wanted to know more about Obama than I could glean from the media. I believe it gives some good background information and is somewhat laborious in detailing sources. Even though it seems dry in all the references,it is excellent if you wish to actually know more about the subject than his followers or detractors have to say. I think it is eye opening concerning his history and voting records on important issues. I don't believe it is a hatchett job, but a third party investigation. If your mind is open, I think you should read this and also books written about other candidates.

  • Americans will not be fooled by "Change"

    This book shows very eloquently that Barak Hussein Obama will "change" the U.S. if elected - forever in the wrong direction, toward communism, marxism, socialism, and un-Americanism. He preys on those that do not know about his background, that he is deeply in the pockets of Muslim extremists from the Middle East/Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac and anyone else willing to help pay him, like known terrorist Ayers. It is truly a sad state of affairs that the media is pushing the worst candidate upon the American people. You just cannot polish a turd and have it look like anything other than a turd, and this book proves it. Excellent read!
