It's been a very tough week for Pres BO's image.
First, there is a new book called "The Amateur".
This is the book where Pres Clinton calls Pres BO an "amateur". I agree with Jack Cashill that "the hand of Clinton" may be behind all of this:
Just curious: Can you recall the last time that an ex-president spoke this way about a president of his own party? It's hard to believe that Ed Klein made it up. I think that someone from the Clintons wanted Klein to hear and write this.
The book also raises a lot of questions about Pres BO's temperament. This is from Ed Lasky's article:

"The
Klein book, for instance, opens with an intimate meeting chez Clinton
in which Bill encourages Hillary to do the seemingly unthinkable, namely
challenge Obama in 2012. Someone at that meeting was allowed to talk to Klein, probably encouraged to talk to Klein. Indeed, the meeting may have been staged for Klein's benefit."

The book also raises a lot of questions about Pres BO's temperament. This is from Ed Lasky's article:
"There
is a common pattern: Obama likes to campaign, but once he is elected
and actually starts working, his interest flags, and he starts looking
for the next "big thing" -- electorally speaking. He had few if any
accomplishments or professional standing in any of his previous
positions. Even when he served as a lecturer at the University of
Chicago Law School, he avoided any encounters with other faculty who
enjoyed discussing the law. His reluctance to engage them is revealing
in and of itself, suggesting he had a reason for his lack of confidence."
Second, we learned there was a publicity brochure identifying BO as "born in Kenya" and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.
My guess is that BO was indeed born in Hawaii but used his "African" background to promote himself or career. How else do you explain a brochure from 1991 saying that he was born in Kenya? I understand that the brochure was still saying so in 2007.
So what's going on? Who told the literary agent that Obama was born in Kenya? What led a clerk in the office to print that BO was born in Kenya? Why didn't BO immediately correct his agent? Would you not correct a nationality mistake in your personal records?
I am not a conspiracy person. However, my guess is that BO may have thought that he was indeed born in Kenya before he was born in Hawaii. Maybe his mom or step father told him different things.
Who knows? We need to hear from Pres BO about this Kenya episode.
