11. OBAMA BRAGS ABOUT HIS TRICKS  

"It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied as long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved--such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time." pg 94 Click Here 

12. OBAMA FOUND HIMSELF ACTING "CRAZY" IN THE STREETS OF NEW YORK AFTER SEEKING INSPIRATION FROM FORMER BLACK PANTHER LEADER 

"The movement had died years ago, shattered into a thousand fragments. Every path to change was well trodden, every strategy exhausted. And with each defeat, even those with the best of intentions could end up further and further removed from the struggles of those they purported to serve. Or just plain crazy. I suddenly realized that I was talking to myself in the middle of the street. People on their way home from work were cutting a small arc around me, and I thought I recognized a couple of Columbia classmates in the crowd, their suit jackets thrown over their shoulders, carefully avoiding my glance." (emphasis added). pg 139-140 Click Here 

13. OBAMA CALLS REAGAN DIRTY, AMERICANS MANIC AND SELF ABSORBED 

"When classmates in college asked me just what a community organizer did, I couldn't answer them directly. Instead ,I'd pronounce the need for change. Change in the White House, where Reagan and his minions were carrying on his dirty deeds. Change in the country, manic and self-absorbed." Pg 133 Click Here 

14. OBAMA DESCRIBES HIMSELF AS A WESTERNER NOT ENTIRELY AT HOME IN THE WEST 

"...but for me that only underscored my own uneasy status: a Westerner not entirely at home in the West, an African on his way to a land full of strangers." Pg 301. Click Here 

15. OBAMA CONSIDERED HIMSELF "A SPY BEHIND ENEMY LINES"  WHEN HE WORKED IN CORPORATE AMERICA 

"Eventually a consulting house to multinational corporations agreed to hire me as a research assistant. Like a spy behind enemy lines, I arrived at my mid-manhattan office and sat at my computer terminal..." Pg 135 Click Here 

16. OBAMA ATTENDED SOCIALIST CONFERENCES AT COOPER UNION IN NEW YORK 

"Political discussions, the kind that at Occidental had once seemed so intense and purposeful, came to take on the flavor of the socialist conferences that I sometimes attended at Cooper Union or the African cultural fairs that took place in Harlem or Brooklyn during the summers-a few of the many diversions that New York had to offer, like going to a foreign film or ice-skating at the Rockefeller Center." pg 122 Click Here 

17.OBAMA WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO CHOOSE MARXIST PROFESSORS AS HIS FRIENDS 

"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist Professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets." pg 100 Click Here

18. OBAMA HUNG OUT WITH RADICALS, GROUND CIGARETTES OUT IN HALLWAY CARPET, BECAUSE HE WAS ALIENATED 

"We smoked cigarettes and wore leather jackets. At night, in the dorms, we discussed neocolonialism, Franz Fanon, Eurocentrism and patriarchy. When we ground out our cigarettes in the hallway carpet or set our stereos so loud that the walls began to shake, we were resisting bourgeois society's stifling constraints. We weren't indifferent or careless or insecure. We were alienated." pg 101 Click Here 

19. IN COLLEGE OBAMA AND HIS FRIENDS WOULD GO ON BINGES

"I tried to change the subject, but Reggie was on a roll. "I'm telling you Regina, it was wild. When the maids showed up on monday morning, we were all still sitting in the hallway, looking like zombies. Bottles everywhere. Cigarette butts. Newspapers. That spot where Jimmy threw up...Reggie turned to me and started to laugh, spilling more beer on the rug. "You remember, don't you man? Shit was so bad those little old Mexican ladies started to cry. "Dios Mio" one of 'em says, and the other starts patting her on the back. Oh shit, we were crazy..." pg 109 Click Here 

20. OBAMA SAYS HIS FATHER GAVE HIM AN IMAGE TO LIVE UP TO 

"And I realized, perhaps for the first time, how even in his absence his strong image had given me some bulwark on which to grow up, an image to live up to, or disappoint." pg 129 Click Here 

21. OBAMA ON HIS MUSLIM AND CATHOLIC STUDIES 

"In Indonesia, I had spent two years at a Muslim school, two years at a Catholic school. In the Muslim school, the teacher wrote to tell my mother that I made faces during Koranic studies. My mother wasn't overly concerned. Be respectful, she'd say. In the Catholic school, when it came time to pray, I would pretend to close my eyes and then peek around the room. Nothing happened. No angels descended. Just a parched old nun and thirty brown children, muttering words." Pg 154. Click Here 

22. OBAMA PUBLICLY DISPARAGES AND EMBARASSES CATHOLIC PRIESTS IN CHICAGO WHO HELPED HIM

"Part of the problem was our base, which-in the city at least-had never been large: eight Catholic parishes flung across several neighborhoods, all with black congregations but all led by white priests. They were isolated men, these priests, mostly of polish or Irish descent, men who had entered the seminary in the sixties intending to serve the poor and heal racial wounds but who lacked the zeal of their missionary forefathers;kinder men, perhaps better men, but also softer for their modernity." Pg 166 Click Here 

23. OBAMA KNEW THAT REV WRIGHT HAD BEEN INVOLVED WITH ISLAM AND BLACK NATIONALISM BEFORE TRINITY UNITED 

"He had grown up in Philadelphia, the son of a Baptist minister. He had resisted his father's vocation at first, joining the Marines out of college, dabbling with liquor, Islam and black nationalism." Pg 282. Click Here

24. OBAMA KNEW FROM THE FIRST SERMON HE HEARD REV WRIGHT PREACH THAT WRIGHT USED THE PULPIT TO BLAME WHITES FOR THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS 

Barack Obama quoting the first sermon he ever heard Rev Wright preach, "The Audacity of Hope": "It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere... That's the world! On which hope sits!" Pg 293 Click Here 

25. OBAMA DRANK HEAVILY AND TRIED DRUGS ENTHUSIASTICALLY 

"I kept playing basketball, attended classes sparingly, drank beer heavily, and tried drugs enthusiastically," pg 93 Click Here 

26. OBAMA SAYS POT, BOOZE AND COCAINE HELPED HIM 

"I blew a few smoke rings, remembering those years. Pot had helped,and booze;maybe a little blow when you could afford it." (emphasis added) pg 93 Click Here 

27. OBAMA CONFIRMS THAT HE WOULD WRITE THE SAME THINGS TODAY  

"I cannot honestly say, however, that the voice in this book is not mine--that I would tell the story much differently today than I did ten years ago, even if certain passages have proven to be iconvenient politically, the grist for pundit commentary and opposition research." State Senator Barack Obama, 2004. pg ix Click Here 

28. OBAMA ADMITS THAT HIS BOOK REVEALS SOME THINGS ABOUT HIM THAT CAUSE HIM SOME SHAME -- AND THAT HE HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO CHANGE 

"Still. I strongly resisted the idea of offering up my past in a book, a past that left me feeling exposed, even slightly ashamed. Not because the past is particularly painful or perverse but because it speaks to those aspects of myself that resist concious choice and that, on the surface at least contradict the world I now occupy."
