Publication in JAMA by someone called B Obama, JD

    I see in the Journal of the American Medical Association there is a paper by someone called 'Barack Obama, JD' and lists his author affiliation as 'President of the United States, Washington, DC "

    I think it pretty cool that a sitting President has such a scholarly publication. I do not recall a previous President doing that (I stand to be corrected on that)

    Also great coup by JAMA to get this! Imagine what the editors thought when the manuscript was submitted .... wonder who the peer reviewers were!

    Obama didn't write this, I can assure you. Further, before he signed the Bill into Law, he never read it, either. With almost 100% assuredness, I can state that he has NEVER read the Bill or the Law...nor have many of those that voted for it. An article in JAMA? Trying to convince docs that this Law is such a great thing? Not all doctors are Marxists...and the Law is failing.

    f that is the case then he has committed perjury or fraud or something for 'signing' the authors acknowledgement with the journal that he is the author...

    Lot of interesting comments in social media on the article; but nothing of substance about what he actually wrote about (that is even if the critics could read the actual; paper and its content)

    Hi Mathew

    Not all 'social health schemes' were designed, initiated or run by Marxists, Leninists, Trotskyites or their fellow travellers. In fact, most of the 1st world European nations have such schemes in place and something like them since medieval times.

    Perhaps. I'm not familiar with how Europe handled medical care delivery during midieval times, (I can't even wrap my hands around that), but all totalitarian regimes use health care as the great equalizer. Even the Wiemar Republic liked national health care...and Hitler liked it so much, he forced all Germans to accept it after he took power. So you forgot fascists in your description above.

    "From each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs"-Karl Marx. This famous Marx quote describes ObamaDon'tCare more than precisely. If Europe happens to be ahead of the US in their socialist/Marxist descent down the drain, so be it.

    Fraud or plagiarism is the least of his "violations" or concerns.

    Hi Mathew

    I didn't forget fascists, or Stalin - extremes meet. However, it is to say the least naive to equate healthcare systems to specific political ideologies - unless of course, you believe that all of Western Europe including Scandinavia is either Communist or Fascist. Have a look at the history of the Knights of Malta concerning medieval medicine - it's very interesting and illuminating.

    How do you know that?
    or are you just saying that because of your political dislike of him?

    It's a simple connection. First, he's not smart enough to write this...second, he's never even read the Bill he signed into Law. Third...read the link I offered above...when the LA Times denigrates that article, you KNOW something is not right. Hope this helps.

    You really have no idea or not if he actually wrote that article or not do you? You are just making that up and hoping it was the case.

    I'm smart enough to know that he never read the Bill before he signed it into Law. If he never read it, then how could he possibly write a piece like what JAMA printed? BTW...I agree with the LA Times...which is a first. Obama's not a scientist, he didn't really teach Constitutional Law in Illinois, his classmates at Columbia don't remember him, a law prof didn't have him in his class which he would have had to take...but other than that...he was a community organizer!

    Cheers!
