A convicted felon who has claimed that he had gay sex with President Barack Obama is running to become mayor of a Florida town.
Larry Sinclair gave a speech at the National Press Club in 2008, while Obama was running for President, alleging that the then-Senator bought and smoked cocaine and had sex with him in 1999.
Sinclair, who has served prison time in Arizona, Florida and Colorado for forgery, fraud and larceny, is now campaigning to win the mayors seat in Cocoa, a town of around 19,000 people, in the November 6 election.
The South Carolina native has told Florida Today that he doesnt regret his accusations, which also include the claim that Obama had another male lover and was connected to his death and were detailed in his self-published 2009 book, Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair: Cocaine, Sex, Lies & Murder?
I dont need to say anything more, Sinclair said. My book speaks for itself, and I do not backtrack anything that I said at that press conference.
His allegations were among the first of many unproven claims to be aimed at Obama during his time running for and serving as Presidentand even since he left office, with InfoWars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones saying earlier this year that Obamas having sex with 10 dudes a day.
Sinclair, 57, is running against two experienced local politicians in the nonpartisan special election to replace Mayor Henry Parrish III, but neither councilmember Clarence Whipple Jr nor former councilmember Jake Williams Jr have brought up Sinclairs inflammatory past claims.
Instead, they have urged voters to conduct their own research into their opponent.
Whipple said: I do believe that the voters are smarter than the candidates give them credit for. But Im not going to send stuff out on it.
However, he did add that electing Sinclair would put a black eye on our city and our state. Its terrible. Its awful.
Councilmember Brenda Warner also criticised the candidate, saying: He doesnt have a filter. Hes loud and obnoxious at times.
He doesnt understand that you often can accomplish something more with kind words than a baseball bat.
Sinclair insisted that he has turned around his life, and that he would use his experiences to inform his actions if he was elected.
Ive been on both sides of the wall, okay? he said. Ive been on both sides of cops. Ive been on both sides of the jail cell. I dont hide from anything Ive ever done in my life, and I dont excuse it, and Im not hiding from it now.
I am very open about who I am, what I have done and what I am doing and will continue to do regardless of how this election turns out.
The candidate, who is not registered with any party, has spent more than $17,000 during his campaign, which is six times more than Williams and nearly 10 times as much as Whipple.
Sinclair explained: I have more support than people thought I would, and its because I am a doer, not a talker.
Even Michelle O has never admitted to it.
“Sinclair, who has served prison time in Arizona, Florida and Colorado for forgery, fraud and larceny, is now campaigning to win the mayors seat in Cocoa,”
He’s certainly got the qualifications dimocrat voters look for.
Aren’t we always supposed to believe the accuser?

She forgot the old saying that you can accomplish more with kind words *and* a baseball bat.
“Okay, Mister Sinclair. So what are your qualifications to be mayor, other than....”
Nobody cares.
Too funny... and true as well. No butt pinching allegations, no allegations of inappropriate behavior whatsoever towards members of the female sex. He’s the first President since... Well, actually he’s the first President to have ever served in office who hasn’t had some salacious allegation hurled at him by a female. So maybe it is true... Obama’s a poofter.
He can’t even vote for himself...
Guaranteeing that the media never once mentions that unpleasant truth about the man they helped elect.
If that is all Sinclair has to talk about, you’re right, nobody will really care about his candidacy.
What difference at this point does it make? None.
This will go under the category of non-serious news, meant to drum up attention for a new book.
I BELIEVE HER. Err...HIM.
WHATEVER..!
I BELIEVE IT..!
PERFECT for southern Florida..!
Whether Obama is a homosexual or was a homosexual - I don't know. However, pro-homo positions and policies like those of Obama are reprehensible.
Regarding an unrepentant homo who has who has served prison for forgery, fraud and larceny - let's just say that person has zero credibility.
That is not a woman.
I’m not sure who is interested anymore, but I was at the NPC Sinclair announcement, and I believe him. Sinclair is/was no angel, but I believe him.
Larry Sinclair’s voice sounds a lot like Truman Capote though I’m not sure that he was gay.
“Whether Obama is a homosexual or was a homosexual - I don’t know. However, pro-homo positions and policies like those of Obama are reprehensible.”
Remember the “rainbow lights “ at the White House?
0panzy has been a fag since his Frank Marshall days.
