Introduction: Obama from the Ford Foundation to the Trilateral Commission 5
Franklin D. Roosevelt New Deal as the most recent successful historical model in how to organize
the American people to deal with a world economic depression.
A critical unauthorized biography of Senator Barack Hussein Obama is all the more urgent today
because nothing competent in this line has been forthcoming so far. Back in 1991, when I began
writing the unauthorized biography of George Bush the elder, I found that the biographical literature
about the candidate was rather limited. There was a campaign biography from 1980, a campaign
biography from 1988, and some biographical essays for 1992. These had all been generated from
Bush family documents and printouts. There were also a limited number of critical studies, which
were either very brief, incomplete, or useless for other reasons. Another biography of Bush the
Elder which appeared after the election turned out to be just another cover-up. But all in all, the
biographical literature was relatively limited, and there were no real autobiographies, memoirs or
books written by the candidate.
With Obama, the picture is radically different. Obama is a word-monger. The candidate himself
claims to be the author of not one but two books, although it is clear that he has had much help from
the ghost-writing staff of the Trilateral-Bilderberg combine. The first is a long autobiographical
memoir entitled Dreams from My Father, which Obama sent into the world back in 1995. This
book documents Obama’s obsession with the polygamous Kenyan father who showed no interest in
him, with race and racism, and above all with himself. It is a document which already suggests that
the author is not just a racist, but also a deeply troubled existentialist megalomaniac, since it is
surely a rare man who writes his own autobiography before he has reached the age of 35, when he
still has accomplished absolutely nothing. This is the book which we define as Obama’s
postmodern Mein Kampf. Obama is also the author of a more conventional catalog of campaign-
oriented political positions The Audacity of Hope, with its title drawn from one of the ranting
sermons of Obama’s racist guru and hatemeister, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
1995: DREAMS FROM MY FATHER – OBAMA’S POSTMODERN MEIN KAMPF
The first time I heard Obama speak, the first words that passed through my mind were, “slippery
as an eel.” This is the main problem with the things that Obama himself has written, as well as with
his campaign in general. Both books written by Obama make it their primary business to deceive
the reader, for obvious purposes of political gain. Dreams is designed to mislead about the
candidate himself, while The Audacity of Hope seeks to muddy the waters concerning his political
ideas and policies. Far too often the audacity of hope that we are promised turns out to be nothing
more than the mendacity of dope, on the part of a candidate whose mental impairment owing to
narcotics abuse during his college years is certainly comparable to that of the notorious George W.
Bush — as we can see in Obama’s striking inability to speak coherently in the absence of the glass
plates of a Teleprompter sitting in front of his nose.
The Audacity of Hope has been described by the reactionary Ann Coulter as Obama’s dime-store
Mein Kampf. This is accurate in at least one way, since both books deal with the quest for racial
identity and the need to overcome the various barriers to the assertion of that identity. Well before
Miss Coulter had come on the scene, I had published an article on the Internet referring to Obama’s
postmodern Mein Kampf, which represents a more exact description of Obama’s actual ideology
and world outlook, which is that of an existentialist reader of the Third World pro-terrorist
ideologue, Frantz Fanon. Obama’s book is also an attempt to capitalize on the popularity of Alex
Haley’s Roots. Obama’s memoir may thus be described as Roots lite, but with the identity trip being
carried out by a Fanon-style existentialist.
