EXCELLENT!! Read ALL of it!

Who am I?

I was born in one country, raised in another.

My father was born in another country.

I was not his only child. He fathered several children with numerous women.

I became very close to my mother, as my father showed no interest in me.

My mother died at an early age from cancer.

Later in life, questions arose over my real name.

My birth records were sketchy and no one was able to produce a
legitimate, reliable birth certificate.

I grew up practicing one faith but converted to Christianity, as it was
widely accepted in my country, but  I practiced non-traditional beliefs
& didn't follow Christianity, except in
the public eye under scrutiny..

I worked and lived among lower-class people as a young adult, disguising
myself as someone who really cared about them.

That was before I decided it was time to get serious about my life and I
embarked on a new career.

I wrote a book about my struggles growing up. It was clear to those who
read my memoirs that I had difficulties accepting  that my father
abandoned me as a child.

I became active in local politics in my 30's then with help behind the
scenes, I literally burst onto the scene as a candidate for
national office in my 40s. They said I had a golden tongue and could
talk anyone into anything. That reinforced my conceit.

I had a virtually non-existent resume, little work history, and no
experience in leading a single organization. Yet I was a powerful
speaker  and citizens were drawn to me as though I were a magnet and
they were small  roofing tacks.

I drew incredibly large crowds during my public appearances. This
bolstered  my ego.

At first, my political campaign focused on my country's foreign policy.
I  was very critical of my country in the last war and seized every
opportunity  to bash my country.

But what launched my rise to national prominence was my views on the
country's economy. I pretended to have a really good plan on how we
could  do better and every poor person would be fed & housed for free.

I knew which group was responsible for getting us into this mess. It was
 the free market, banks & corporations. I decided to start making
citizens  hate them & if they were envious of others who did well, the
plan was  clinched tight.

I called mine "A People's Campaign" and that sounded good to all people.

I was the surprise candidate because I emerged from outside the
traditional  path of politics & was able to gain widespread popular support.

I knew that, if I merely offered the people 'hope' , together we could
change our country and the world.

So, I started to make my speeches sound like they were on behalf of the
 downtrodden, poor, ignorant to include "persecuted minorities" like the
Jews. My true views were not widely known & I needed to keep them
unknown, until after I became my nation's leader.

I had to carefully guard reality, as anybody could have easily found out
what I really believed, if they had simply read my writings and examined
those people I associated with.

I'm glad they didn't. . Then I became the most powerful man in the
world. And the world learned the truth.

Who am I?
