NEW YORK, Aug. 13 (UPI) -- The man whose "Unfit for Command" attacked Sen. John Kerry's Vietnam record has set his sights on U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, painting him as a radical liberal.
Conservative Jerome R. Corsi has published "The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality," which -- despite parts having been challenged as misleading or downright false -- will make its debut on The New York Times' best-seller list for non-fiction hardbacks Sunday, at No. 1, the Times reported Wednesday.
Corsi's book portrays the likely Democratic presidential nominee as a under-the-radar liberal who has attempted to hide his "extensive connections to Islam and questions whether Obama's admitted dabbling with drugs in high school and college ever ended.
The book is shepherded along by a large volume of bulk sales, voter interest and 100 author interviews with conservative radio hosts such as Sean Hannity and G. Gordon Liddy, Corsi told the Times.
"The goal is to defeat Obama," Corsi said. "I don't want Obama to be in office."
Corsi's book about Kerry, the senator from Massachusetts who ran against President George Bush in 2004, helped to start the larger damaging campaign against Kerry's war credentials.
