newb org-dotemacs cannot open load file, ob-core

Having issue with org-dotemacs. I have come to emacs for org-mode, so my
understanding is minimal. (Ironically, I decided to try to get orgdotemacs
going to help troubleshoot other org-mode problems.)

Attempting to follow steps given at
    http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/OrgDotemacs

Roughly, I am using the installation instructions at the bottom of that web
page.

In attempts to create "minimal working error", my .emacs file only has:

    (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-dotemacs-20130908.1756/")
    (require 'org-dotemacs)

    ; (load-file
"~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-dotemacs-20130908.1756/org-dotemacs.el")
    (org-dotemacs-load-file)

and the .dotemacs.org file is empty. I have uninstalled all installed
packages and reinstalled org from a fresh emacs.

(I have also tried other versions of orgdotemacs, in windows, and not
having the above commented out (removed ";"). The latter seemed to lead to
some type of cloning, and in lieu of understanding the syntax, I removed it
considering the possibility that the author made a mistake there.)

When I open emacs, I get

    Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading
`/home/username/.emacs':

    File error: Cannot open load file, ob-core

    To ensure normal operation, you should investigate and remove the
    cause of the error in your initialization file.  Start Emacs with
    the `--debug-init' option to view a complete error backtrace.

If I run emacs --debug-init at terminal, I get

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function cl-position-if)
  cl-position-if(#[(x) "\301\232\207" [x "-error-handling"] 2] ("emacs"))
