Obama's prose is very similar to the great beatnik writer Jack Kerouac.

Obama was born fifty years too late. Pop some bennies & light up your corn cob pipe.

Any thoughts?

Obama's writing seems a bit more structured than Kerouac. The straightforwardness is similar, but I got more of a sense of direction from Obama.

I think this speaks to the influence of Kerouac on the form of memoirs.

Maybe he can be the Poet Laureate at Romney's Inauguration.

Obama's writings are nothing more than that of a plagiarizer.

He couldn't even write his own books; Bill Ayers had to ghostwrite them for him.

What causes you to make such foolish statements about President Obama? Is it because his skin is dark?

Well considering the fact that Bill Ayers has admitted it and experts agree; Bill Ayers is a literary genius.

Obama isn't. Ayers has a very unique style of writing that is present in dreams!!

I am also aware that the internet has too much misinformation.

We can't even find the correct definition of Natural Born there is so much crap out there.

We've gone over this time
and time

and time again: Bill Ayers was making a joke.

Now, I am aware that you have a terminal humor deficit, but I would expect that even someone as irony-proof as you can tell when something is being said in jest (Big hint, the laughter from the audience afterwards is a dead giveaway)
