During the ‘08 election the story was circulating on FR about someone having met a Russian couple at a cocktail party years earlier, and they said a Black guy named “Obama,” whom the Russians had been grooming from a young age, would have a meteoric rise to prominence and be elected President.
I don’t know if the story is true, but I recall that it sent a shiver up my spine in a way that caught me completely off guard. I have never really doubted that Obama is, except recently when I have instead suspected he was a Muslim Brotherhood/Al Qaeda plant instead. Certainly no American.
The whole story should be available in FR archives. I made a paper copy of the FR report and have used it numerous times as a reference. The entire scenario goes back years even if not covered in the subject FR posting.
