Why is Obama killing his campaign workers?

What is he hiding?

Thank you, Doctor Barnacle... but you left out Genetic pre-disposition. I knew a man who drank a fifth of whiskey every day and smoked 3 cartons of cigarettes per week, and lived until 94. Maybe it was because he repaired and refurbished pianos... Who knows? (You and I don’t know) I also knew a jogger who ate nothing but vegetables and rice, who took good care of his body, never smoked or drank, had no heart defects or anything like that, and died at 34. People abuse their bodies and live to 100, People take the best of care of their bodies and die at 30. Of course, then there are the SUVs that are targeting people on sidewalks. We MUST STOP THEM!

Quote from his Tweet. July 12th "Grungy dive-y whiskey bar. one of the best."

He must have piked up a killer bug from that grungy dive-y whiskey bar.

He is about 29 years old...

Meaning he still is 'alive' and can vote for his master.

You’re a good person. And with that work ethic, you’ll go far!

(To the head of the line boarding the train to the re-education camp, if Obama has his way. :-) )
