This is a rush transcript from "Hannity," May 4, 2010. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.
SEAN HANNITY, HOST: Ever since Barack Obama arrived on the national political stage, this program has shined the spotlight on his connections to controversial figures like Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers. And now a new book delves deeper into the president's radical associations.
It's called "The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and Other Anti-American Extremists."
The author, Aaron Klein, has a radio show and often writes for World Net Daily. He joins us now.
Aaron, good to see you. Thanks for being here.
AARON KLEIN, AUTHOR, "THE MANCHURIAN PRESIDENT": Thanks so much for having me.
HANNITY: Alright. Even the title, it's going to make liberals' head explode. And what we just — explain what you mean, Manchurian candidate and the title of the book?
KLEIN: I know it's a very sensational title. The book, though, is extremely well documented. We're talking about almost 900 footnotes.
And by Manchurian what we mean, we don't believe, me and my co-author, Brenda J. Elliott, we don't that Obama is a sleeper agent for communism, which is what the original book was about.
But we document thoroughly — it's not our opinion, it's fact — that Obama is tied to an anti-American fringe nexus that was instrumental in building his political career from the beginning, all the way through now with the White House.
We expose extremists currently in the White House. And also outside helping to draft different legislation that's affecting everyday American lives.
HANNITY: I've chronicled the appointment of these "czars," Kevin Jennings and Van Jones and Holdren and Anita Dunn. I mean, one person after another; I mean, the list goes on and on. Very extreme. Most Americans don't understand this. And I've chronicled it.
Go back to the Ayers connection, for example. I always thought "just a guy in the neighborhood" was total baloney. And yet he got away with that throughout the entire campaign.
KLEIN: He did. And actually, Ayers is key. We can go back to the beginning to Obama's childhood when we found out we — it's actually exclusive to the book — that he we went to a certain Sunday school that was affiliated with the ideology of Bill Ayers. It was in Hawaii, where deserters from the Students for a Democratic Society from Bill Ayers' organization used to hole up in this church. But OK, so you can't hold him responsible for that.
And then we find out where he first met Bill Ayers, which was in 1988.
HANNITY: Right.
KLEIN: Actually. And very interestingly, in Obama's book, in "Dreams From My Father," he talks about his first job at what's called the ABC Coalition. And he says that he was hired by a guy named Marty Kaufman. Well, Kaufman doesn't exist. It's Kellman (ph), a Marxist Alinsky-ite. And so the thing with Ayers is that it's just the beginning of a radical nexus.

Cracks me up that the biggest deficits and worst financial crisis are caused by Republican presidents.
I guess the Republican Senators that voted to KEEP their government run healthcare insurance no matter what the new healthcare plan did are also socialists and communists. They are the ones that voted for Americans NOT to get the same government run healthcare that they do.
I wish you right wingers were as hard on George Bush; the worst president in the HISTORY of the U.S.
Where have you been???? Obama has run up more debt in the short time he's been in office than all other presidents in history combined!!
The Dems were the ones who forced this so called "health care" bill on us, and they all are exempt from it, including Obama. The Dems are in charge, remember? They had to be the ones to exempt tham all from it.
Obama's treatment of the banks and attitude towards the war and Middle East doesn't fit the cap of a Marxist. Why don't you judge him by what he does and for what he is, rather than what others say he might be.
It appears you don't know who fabricated that lie.
So where is this "Radical Network"? Never materialised in Obama's 8 years of Presidency.
Just proves Hannity is a liar nothing more.
Obama's "Uncle" Frank!
Terima kasih. Terima kasih, thank you so much, thank you, everybody. Selamat pagi. (Applause.) It is wonderful to be here at the University of Indonesia. To the faculty and the staff and the students, and to Dr. Gumilar Rusliwa Somantri, thank you so much for your hospitality. (Applause.)
Obama attended the Indonesian-language government-run Besuki School, one-and-half miles east in the exclusive Menteng administrative village.
Barack Obama has since urged Indonesians to resist divisive politics based on race and religion, saying the world's most populous Muslim nation has a long history of tolerance that should be preserved.
But not Americans oh no
