By immigrationprof

518rvzd1mol__sl160_pisitbdparrowtop Ben Smith on Politico.com reports that Jerome Corsi, the author of a much-criticized book slamming Sen. Barack Obama (as well as the co-author, with Jim Gilchrist and 51hk9532b9l__sl500_bo2204203200_aa2 Tom Tancredo, of a book on the Minutemen), was recently detained in Kenya for an immigration violation as he arrived for a press conference to promote his latest book. Authorities in Kenya, where Obama’s father was born, said Corsi had entered the country as a tourist and was not permitted to work here.
