I don't think that some "buries" details by putting them in a book. The details are there for anyone who is interested enough to look -- and quite frankly not all people are so why should Obama know that one particular detail is going to be of personal interest to a single voter. You're acting like there are only 1000 copies and someone would have to interlibrary loan the book to read it. And while technically the book was released before his candidacy, I'm pretty sure most people knew where the book was eventually going to lead. The fact that it came out before doesn't mean that he wasn't thinking about running for President when he wrote it. And it certainly doesn't mean that people are less likely to pick it up for insight into what he might do as President.
"This argument fails" makes me laugh a little (in a nice way... calm down, man). It reminds me of debate... by any chance were you a debater in HS or college? I ask because you're really committed to a line-by-line refutation style in your posts.
