Was wandering through the vast tracts of misinformation on the interweb and came across a website claiming Obama had a 'secret past' that has been patched over. Likening him to a manchurian candidate. I tripped over a book by John Mariotti and D.M Lucas called Hope is not a strategy and a website called 'Forbes'.
I'm not going further than that, because there is something fishy going on. There is no retraction, but any website connected to this subject has been torn down with no explanation given.
It points to one of two things:
Either these authors have created a conspiracy by pretending their sites and articles have been censored. In other words a clever marketing ploy. Even Amazon in the uk does not appear to stock that particular book despite it being 'supposedly' written by two well known people.
Or there is some truth in it and it really is being censored.
I'm minded to think its a clever marketing ploy because I can't figure out why Obama would need to hide his past anyway. He was a candidate and anyone could have checked his back ground prior to becoming a candidate and simply found someone similar to replace him.
Would be interested in other peoples opinions if you can be bothered to do a search.
