This is likely spam. I’m assuming this was a liberal who went ahead and researched these. Here is his post from this forum:

Um, only two of these people exist. The Reverend JAMES David Manning is still very much alive, and a pastor at a different church—Fox news had him on a few months ago:

Writes Sadlyno.com: “We’re coming up cold blank on several so far, including the ‘Sarah Berkley’ who wrote the apparently nonexistent book, The Jihad at the Ballot Box.” That’s right. There is no such book as Jihad at the ballot box.
You can’t open the windows on the 80th floor of the Hancock tower, and Gandy Baugh died at home in 1994. Also, as another commenter noted, on the “Clinton death list.”
Here’s the rest of the compilation:
None of them:
- LAWSHAWNA MARTIN. Also, there is no such place in Chicago as the Blue Peppermint Gentleman’s Club.
- BILL FERGUSON, who turns up nowhere on Google despite being a “senior aide” to a man running for President of the United States.
- KEYSHAWN CALWORTH. Nothing on Google except this list. (Which, I think, is probably a joke, its presence on MyRightWingDad notwithstanding.)
- SHEILA BAUGH. At least in the context of being a DC madam, as opposed to an Arkansas realtor.
- HARVEY KENYON. No Google references, despite being an Obama security boss as recently as 2005 who was allegedly murdered. How come whenever I was leaving Grant Park, I could never find these “deserted intersections””?
- CURTIS “POOKIE” JACKSON. Doesn’t show up on a list of murdered Chicagoans from 1998, despite having a pretty common name.
- PAUL ROTHCHILD. No one by this name was ever Political Director of the Democratic National Committee.
- CHRISTOPHER HARGROVE. The only place this name occurs on Google in conjunction with Larry Sinclair is, surprise! On this list.
- REV. DAVID MANNING. The Rev. James David Manning is the head of a black megachurch in Atlanta, and is still alive. Rev. Jeremiah Wright took over the Trinity United Church of Christ (not the Trinity Baptist Church) in 1972, but it was from Reuben A. Sheares, not David Manning. Sheares was alive and healthy when Wright took over the job.
- DARSANO RAHARDJO. Nothing on Google. Also, my copy of the Q’uran doesn’t say anything about Muslim boys having to commit ritual murder to prove their loyalty to Allah, but it’s widely considered a liberal translation.
- HASAD AL-SHAREEZ. Again, nothing on Google. “Hasad” means “envy” in Arabic.
- TAMIKA HILL. “tamika”+”hill”: lots of results. “tamika”+”hill”+”murder”: 0 results.
- MERCEDES HUGLEY. For the record, date rape was a crime in 1990, too.
- BRIAN GORING. There really is a Brian Goring who’s a Chicago attorney, but he’s still alive, and no lawyer by that name worked for Tony Rezko.
- RODRIGO VILLALOPEZ. Incidentally, more than one cameraman filmed that campaign stop; why did Obama direct his wrath only at poor fictional Rodrigo?
- RUSSELL McDOUGAL. The Federal Bureau of Investigations makes public lists of all of its agents who have died in the line of duty, and none of them have been named Russell McDougal. No one by that name ever appears to have been on Savage Nation, either.
The only name on there that’s verifiable as a real person on Google is the guy who supposedly died twice, once by Clinton in 1994 and once by Obama in 2002.
