Obama is not a man

On Paltalk, after Obama's win, we were treated to several recordings of black preachers who claimed that Obama is not human but was created in a laboratory. They claimed that Obama is so calm because he does not have blood running in his veins, since he is an android. Some assert that Obama is just an evil product of the devil. Some claimed he was the antichrist, but others disagreed. The conspiracy theories that emerged almost instanteously are astounding!

The US Constitution is Illegal!

On Paltalk, after Obama won most of the electoral college votes, there was a lot of celebrating and crowing. When the interesting question of whether Obama is a natural born citizen or not was brought up, one "gentleman" claimed that only indigenous peoples in the US could be presidents of the US. In other words, his personal definition of the phrase "natural born citizen" was correct, and the agreed upon definition of "natural born citizen" by centuries of legal scholars and litigation and court proceedings was incorrect. All the law professors in the United States and all the courts are incorrect, and this obviously uneducated chat room resident was correct. And he wanted us to accept it without question. Since a number of non-indigenous people had held the office of the US presidency, the constitution had been violated repeatedly in the United States.

He also claimed that since women were not allowed to vote originally according to the US constitution, that the US constitution was an illegal law and should be never be enforced and should never have been followed. Well it is hard to know what to say to that sort of argument. Others also claimed that the CIA had "standing" to sue Obama in court and since they had not, this showed that he was a valid candidate. I tried to point out that this is not what the CIA does, but I was savagely attacked and told that I should be made a slave so I would understand what it was like to be a black. Oh my gosh....
