Re: The Daily TRUMPetour V10
snip-
Barack Obama's literary agents were still listing the U.S President's birthplace as Kenya in their online author bios two months after he first announced his run for president in 2007.
Viewed on web.archive.org the April 3rd 2007 listing from Acton & Dystel for Mr Obama still touts the then-Democratic junior senator from Illinois as 'born in Kenya'.
Indeed, the short biography even references his now famous speech to the Democratic National Convention which launched Mr Obama to national fame and announced him as potential candidate for the presidency.

Re: The Daily TRUMPetour V10
Trump doesn't want to show his taxes because he knows now that he should have put everything in a foundation like the Clintons and would have paid nothing.

Once again, here is someone who doesn't know what they're talking about:
Hillary Clinton, Tim Kaine release tax returns while Donald Trump defies decades-old tradition of disclosure
Today, Hillary Clinton released her 2015 personal tax return and Senator Tim Kaine and his wife, Anne Holton, released 10 years of their returns.
“Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine continue to set the standard for financial transparency as she releases her 2015 personal tax return and builds on the Clintons’ tradition of making their returns public since 1977 and Kaine releases 10 years of his returns,” said Hillary for America communications director Jennifer Palmieri. “In stark contrast, Donald Trump is hiding behind fake excuses and backtracking on his previous promises to release his tax returns. He has failed to provide the public with the most basic financial information disclosed by every major candidate in the last 40 years. What is he trying to hide?”
In 2015, the Clintons paid an effective federal income tax rate of 34.2 percent and an effective state and local income tax rate of 9 percent for a combined federal, state, and local effective tax rate of 43.2 percent. They donated 9.8 percent of their adjusted gross income to charity.
Clinton’s and Kaine’s newly released returns have been added alongside the past eight years of Clinton’s personal tax returns, covering 2007–2014. This supplements the public release of the Clinton family’s tax returns from 2000–2006 during her 2008 campaign, returns from 1992–1999 disclosed annually during her husband’s tenure in the White House, and prior returns released by her husband’s presidential campaign. All told, the Clintons have made their tax returns public for every year dating back to 1977.
The table below shows the effective federal tax rate, effective state and local tax rate, and the combined effective federal, state and local rate.
Year | Clinton Effective Federal Tax Rate | Clinton Effective State/Local Tax Rate | Clinton Effective Federal/State/Local Combined Tax Rate |
2001 | 37.7% | 6.7% | 44.4% |
2002 | 38.2% | 6.8% | 45% |
2003 | 32% | 7.8% | 39.7% |
2004 | 31.1% | 7.7% | 38.9% |
2005 | 30.8% | 7.6% | 38.5% |
2006 | 29.5% | 7.6% | 37.1% |
2007 | 25% | 11.6% | 36.6% |
2008 | 30.5% | 7.1% | 37.6% |
2009 | 30.5% | 9.4% | 39.9% |
2010 | 31.2% | 9.1% | 40.3% |
2011 | 29.5% | 10.3% | 39.8% |
2012 | 30% | 9.2% | 39.2% |
2013 | 35.4% | 9.2% | 44.6% |
2014 | 35.7% | 10.1% | 45.8% |
2015 | 34.2% | 9% | 43.2% |
Senator Kaine and Anne Holton released 10 years of their returns. The table below shows the effective federal tax rate, effective state and local tax rate, and the combined effective federal, state and local rate. Over the course of the past 10 years, they have donated 7.5 percent of their adjusted gross income to charity.
Year | Kaine Effective Federal Tax Rate | Kaine Effective State/Local Tax Rate | Kaine Effective Federal/State/Local Combined Tax Rate |
2006 | 16.1% | 5.1% | 21.2% |
2007 | 15.3% | 5.1% | 20.5% |
2008 | 14.1% | 4.8% | 18.9% |
2009 | 13.4% | 5.3% | 18.7% |
2010 | 22.6% | 4.9% | 27.4% |

2012 | 15.4% | 5.4% | 20.7% |
2013 | 18.5% | 5.1% | 23.5% |
2014 | 20.5% | 5.3% | 25.8% |
2015 | 20.3% | 5.4% | 25.6% |

Re: The Daily TRUMPetour V10
Better be careful what you wish for Jen. We still have the whole month of October. Can you think of a better October surprise than a Donald Trump tax return that has no bomb shells?
Mean while at the clinton camp......
snip-
This is a partial transcript of "The Big Story With John Gibson," January 19, 2007, that has been edited for clarity.
JOHN GIBSON, HOST: The gloves are off: Hillary Clinton is reported to be already digging up the dirt on Barack Obama.
The New York senator has reportedly outed Obama's madrassa past. That's right, the Clinton team is reported to have pulled out all the stops to reveal something Obama would rather you didn't know: that he was educated in a Muslim madrassa.
I was criticized on this show for outing Obama as a smoker, but look at what some anti-Obama Democrats are doing to her political rival now. They are playing the Muslim phobia card.
Is this just the beginning? Is the Obama honeymoon officially over? What other dirty little secrets will come out as they battle it out in the race for the White House? With me now is Republican strategist Terry Holt.
Terry, this is appearing on a Web site today, Insight magazine, which is a subsidiary of The Washington Times. Here's the question. I'll put it up on the screen: Barack's madrassa past. He says that "during the five years that we would live with my stepfather in Indonesia, I was sent first to a neighborhood Catholic school and then to a predominately Muslim school." That's from his book, "The Audacity of Hope."
Now in the meantime, this is what Democrats are saying, according to Insight magazine. They're looking into his background. They're saying: He was a Muslim. He concealed it. His opponents within the Democrats hope this will become a major issue in the campaign.
Now, we have heard about dirty politics before. Republicans aren't involved in this one. What do you think about what's going on over there?
TERRY HOLT, REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST: John, the last time I checked, there was still a freedom of religion in this country. And this is either a despicable act by an absolutely ruthless Clinton political machine. We know that they are capable of doing this. But it wasn't directly linked to Hillary Clinton. If it wasn't her, then certainly she should disavow it because I think we have spent an awful lot of time in this country trying to tamp down anti-religious sentiments.
But you know, it's also, if you took a page out of the Clinton book and you are really shrewd and you were Barack Obama, you might want to put this out yourself so that you could deal with it early in the political campaign and get it over with. I don't know.
GIBSON: Let me show you what the press secretary to U.S. Senator Barack Obama said today in a statement about this story. They said: "The idea that Senator Barack Obama attended some radical Islamic school is completely ludicrous. Senator Obama is a committed Christian and attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago."
Nonetheless Terry, what damage does it do to Obama to have the word madrassa attached to his name?
HOLT: Well, I think that Barack Obama is such a white-hot political property right now that I'm not sure that it does any long-term damage. He may have to explain this, but, you know, Obama's story is unique to the political field at this point having been educated overseas.
I would also point out that a madrassa before it was politicized and really taken over by the fundamentalists primarily from Saudi Arabia, it was nothing more than a parochial school, and Barack Obama was in school 40 years ago. So I'm not sure that this is a campaign killer, but it does, I think, maybe put on him the burden of explanation, a little bit more about his bio.
GIBSON: Terry, this is a hotly contested race. Senator Clinton thought she had it in the bag and that she was the nominee already. He's made a surprise run at her. Does this give his team a warning of what sort of things are coming before he could possibly capture the nomination?
HOLT: Absolutely. You know, the Clinton team and the machine, make no mistake, it's still in place. They used to call themselves the masters of disaster. And if Barack Obama gets into the race against Clinton, I think that he can count on no small amount of disaster being forced upon him by running against one of the most effective and one of the most negative political machines ever assembled in this country.
But you know what? If you're going to run for president, you have to be prepared for everything and anything to be thrown at you, and in many ways voters are looking not so much for the facts about what you have done in your past, but really how do you handle it? Do you handle it with poise? Do you handle it with honesty and dignity? If he handles this well I'm not sure that this puts him in a corner he can't escape from.
GIBSON: Terry Holt on the madrassa bomb dropped on Barack Obama. Terry, thanks very much.
HOLT: Thanks, John.
