They're cute, lol...

The future president writes about making love and 'breaking sweat' in notes to woman who went on to marry a Serbian boxer

She didn't sell it to the Daily Mail. The Daily Mail is only reporting a story, giving away excerpts of the letters. She gave the letters to a university instead either as a donation or as part of a sales transaction.

Obama dated some classless women back in the day, if this note is legit.


White kind of woman SELLS a love letter to a rag like the Daily Mail???

AB, unless it states, "Daily Mail Exclusive" or "DM Political or Science Correspondant', it's a relayed story. Like News Republic's App or MetroZone's etc...a bunch of collected oitsourced stories usually with links to their source.

As JS and the story said, the University released them.
 
I still don't comprehend how a woman who used to date someone who became POTUS would even give/sell sexual love notes to a university.

It's tacky and has very little historical content whatsoever.

I guess if she took nudes of Barack back in the day, it would cool if she 'donated' those to a university too.
 
People have been handing over such material to universities and museums forever because historians are interested and will pay premium prices. I think one museum has a collection of love letters/letter correspondence between Ronald and Nancy Reagan (or perhaps it was Lyndon Johnson and his wife). The point is that there is an appetite and a curiosity for these intimate details regarding Presidents. You just seem upset because its involving Obama this time and thus you are acting as if its an attack on him. That's not the case. It it a bit exploitative? Yes, I guess, considering Obama had no say in this. But was it done in malice? No evidence suggests it was. I'm sure some black women may take it as an affront to Michele Obama. But that's what black ladies tend to do; make it all about them.

When nude pics of Obama are revealed and sold then you have a legitimate gripe.
 
My issue was the letters had a sexual content in them, in which case I fail to see the historical value beyond voyeuristic.

This woman isn't his wife and she had nothing to do with his political career, so why are letters Barack wrote to her of any real value to anyone but herself??

I just feel it's undignified and beneath his legacy to have these letters in the public arena.
