CURTIS YARVIN (GUEST): Let's consider Barack Obama. We're going to trace Barack Obama's—
PATRICK BET-DAVID (HOST): Ideas.
YARVIN: Ideas and origins back. So, who was Barack Obama's mentor? Well, that's a little bit disputed.
BET-DAVID: You've hit a couple names.
YARVIN: Yes, but you might think of Bill Ayers.
BET-DAVID: Sure.
YARVIN: And I think that's a very legitimate connection. They were certainly close, arguably, before it was said that they were close. You know?
BET-DAVID: I would have thought about Frank Marshall Davis. That's the first one —
YARVIN: Yeah. Yeah. That's his, probably his dad, actually, who's also, I mean, they look like, if you basically take Frank Marshall Davis and Stanley Ann Dunham's face and morph them together, it looks like Barack Obama. This is another thing. If I if, you know, let's go full birther for a moment. Can we go full birther?
BET-DAVID: Sure, yeah.
YARVIN: Obviously he was not born in Kenya. That's ridiculous. That would have never happened at this time. What I believe happened was that basically Stanley Dunham's Black — Dunham is also a communist. His Black communist pornographer friend knocks up his teenage daughter, and the response is, and this was kind of a normal thing for 1960, the response is, let's find an African exchange student who can pretend to be the real father. Because actually, my Black communist pornographer friend knocked up my daughter, is not acceptable —
BET-DAVID: Stop.
YARVIN: In any way, shape or form, in 1960. You know, I had a —
BET-DAVID: Is that what you're saying happened?
YARVIN: That's, I'm pretty sure what happened. And that explains just like, it explains the complete lack of a relationship between Barack Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham. It explains Barack Obama's relationship with a guy he calls Pop. It explains, like, you know, a zillion things. And it's just it's actually kind of banal. What's actually not banal is that I think they got, communists working in the state government in Hawaii to kind of forge the documentation a little bit, which is why you had that whole food for all with the birth certificate, which by the way, we still have not seen.
