Thousands of hours of research and writing have gone into The Obama
Timeline. Regrettably, some Internet users are not aware of copyright law. The Obama Timeline (both parts I
and II), as well as the many articles found on the left side-bar of this site, are copyrighted. It is both immoral and illegal
to copy the Timeline in its entirety to post on another web site.
Of course, I want as many Americans as possible to read The Obama Timeline.
Please encourage others to read it, share the links to this site, and quote from it... but do so in a reasonable manner.
I readily grant permission for others to quote paragraphs from
the Timeline, but please credit me as the author and mention this web site.
(You do not need to contact me and request permission.) I also welcome links at other sites directing readers to this site.
But copying the entire document for other purposes is an entirely different matter, and is improper and illegal.
(Other sites have gone so far as to post the full Timeline and imply that they were its author.)
If you believe The Obama Timeline (Part I) is an important book, encourage
your friends to buy a copy. (The e-book is $6.00; the published book can be found at Amazon.com and most other online
booksellers.) Part II appears at this web site, where it is meant to be read. It is not meant to be copied in
full and distributed freely.
Maintaining this web site and the Timeline is a full-time job. Although
my primary goal is to expose Obama, not to earn money from book royalties, I nevertheless should not be cheated out of them.
Thank you.
Don Fredrick
