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.
