Am I missing something? Where or when did Sinclair claim the encounter with the “young person” was at a campaign youth event? Could he not be referring to a one-on-one encounter at some other earlier date?
I think it stretches it a bit to claim “debunking” based on a record of when he first had a TV talk with a bunch of kids. I would think it would be very reasonable to “test” youth interaction long before going on TV in front of the nation. Obama probably talked to hundreds of kids prior to the TV talk.
I am not saying I believe Sinclair but I have seen this sort of democratic “nip it in the bud”, “sweep it under the rug quick”, “attack the messenger” strategy before.
I think there should be a lot more evidence provided before dismissing Sinclair as a “Time Traveler”.
