Latest GOP smear plot revealed: Professor paid to try to tie Ayers to Obama biography

Published: Saturday November 1, 2008


The brother of a Republican congressman and a Republican businessman attempted to pay an professor in Oxford to use software he designed to "prove" that 1960s radical William Ayers helped write Sen. Barack Obama's biography.

The professor, Dr. Peter Millican, teaches philosophy at Hertford College, Oxford. His software is designed to detect when works are by the same authors by comparing the use of similar words and phrases.

2. Too bad he didn't; the reality of Obama's authorship would have been totally revealed.
