such a crazy notion

1991-2007

Doug Ross of Director Blue used the wayback feature to investigate Obama's literary agency's website and it shows that there were a number of revisions to the literary agent-distributed Obama biography that said he was born in Kenya; these revisions reflected changes in Obama's life. But it wasn't until 2007 when he threw his hat in the ring for the presidency that the bio was changed to state he was born in Hawaii.

The Director Blue link shows that Obama or his literary agent did not change his biography (April 2007) until a couple of months after announcing he was running for president (February 2007).

probably just an "oversight"...for 16 years...I mean...who checks their own bio for accuracy anyways?
