A thought:

How much of the "Obama wasn't REALLY born in the USA" stuff do you think comes from people who misread or misheard "Obama is a Keynesian" as "Obama is a Kenyan"?

Do you think there really is that much overlap in terms of news sources? (I really have no idea.)

I suppose there may be a few people making that error, but I don't think it represents a significant portion of the people who believe he was born in Kenya.

Somewhere between "statistically insignificant" and "zero."
