Jerome Corsi is in Kenya, hoping to launch his book, "The Obama Nation Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality." Instead, he was taken by authorities for "questioning."

Corsi had planned on visiting George Obama, Barack Obama's half-brother, in the slums of Nairobi. He was going to donate money to George, who has been receiving some funds since the world learned about the squalid conditions he was living in.

"He has not been arrested. He is just answering some questions about what he is doing here in Kenya," said one of his assistants. "We have been given water and are very comfortable."

According to literature that Corsi revealed before his arrest, he planned on exposing ties between Barack Obama and Kenyan politicians.

"Dr Corsi will also expose details of deep secret ties between US Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and a section of Kenya government leaders, their connection to certain sectoral groups in Kenya and subsequent plot to be executed in Kenya should Sen Obama win the American presidency," said the release.
