The author: a discredited, fringe bigot
Of course, the lies in "The Obama Nation" almost pale in comparison to the bizarre, conspiratorial views that Jerome Corsi has advocated in his broader work. He believes that President Bush is trying to merge the United states with Mexico and Canada. He believes that there is a literally unending supply of oil beneath the ground. And in perhaps the gravest sign that his views can’t be trusted, he alleges a government cover-up of the 9/11 attacks and denies that airplanes were to blame for the towers’ collapse. And it doesn’t stop there. Corsi has penned a litany of bigoted, hateful comments— crossing the line so thoroughly that even the right-wing operatives behind Swift Boat Veterans for Truth disavowed him. This is a man who smears the Catholic Church, calls the Pope "senile," and regularly demeans public servants in vile sexual and racial terms. In short, his record of attacks is disgusting and false, and so is this book.

OUCH

Preface to the Lies

Corsi’s book is rife with inaccuracies. He claims to have 700 footnotes and yet he gets some of the most basic
facts about Barack Obama wrong—like the year the Obamas were married. Corsi writes throughout his book
that Obama has refused to acknowledge details about his life, but a quick search through Obama’s two
thorough books shows that, despite Corsi’s claims, Obama does in fact talk about his sister’s birth and did
dedicate "Dreams from My Father" to his family, for example. But Corsi makes more troubling inaccurate
claims as well, such as saying that Obama gave a million dollars to a Kenyan politician, when numerous outlets
have shown that to be a lie. And Corsi’s claims that Obama would leave the country unsafe by destroying the
military are spurious and untrue. While these are certainly not all the inaccuracies in the book, they include
some important points we thought should be pointed out.

I haven't read the book, I won't read the book, but reading through this rebuttal piece gives one a clear taste of what your not missing...

Insulting Obama's Dad

"What Obama omits is that the liver disease that killed his stepfather was brought on by acute alcoholism,
much as his father had committed what some would see as a car-assisted suicide." [p. 48]

Offending Obama's racial identity

"Even though Obama is not descended from a slave, the identity he seeks is African-American." [p 63]

"Obama wants to will all the white blood out of himself so he can become pure black." [p 91]

"The staggering number of African American abortions since Roe v. Wade in 1973 would suggest the
‘abortion on demand insistence of the political left is permitting genocide to be waged against blacks in
America.’" [p 240]
