Obama's Aunt: What did he know and when did he know it?

The Katie Couric interview to which James Fulford linked in his Taranto/Xenophobe blog is highly significant. Obama says:

She's my father's half sister who I know but probably haven't seen in 2 years. I have seen maybe 4 times in the last 10 years so it's not somebody that I'm particularly close to. My assumption had been that she is in this country on a tourist visit.

Updated release of my new book: America's Half-Blood Prince: Barack Obama's "Story of Race and Inheritance"

Thanks to all your proofreading, we have a version of my book online with about 800 fixes of problems of the first version. (Although about 500 involved curly quotes, em dashes, and other things that are hard to notice on screen, but look bad in print.) A couple of hundred more involved one letter typos that are particularly hard to fix. But that still leaves about 100 lulus fixed, such as getting maternal and paternal grandparents confuses, which is kind of show stopper with Barack Obama.

Obama Is A Citizen--So Is McCain

I keep getting emails doubting if Obama is a natural-born citizen, something you have to be to be President. As Steve Sailer said a while back, of course he is.

So Immigration Is Off-Limits. What About Character?

As I write this in the early hours of Monday morning, the Obama/Illegal Immigrant Aunt scandal has gone from the front page of Google News. This of course is largely due to the stupid and cowardly decision of the McCain campaign to avoid the issue.
