This young man’s got a big future ahead of him. He can surely get an interview with NSA and surely again he can get a lock on position inside Obama’s perpetual campaign committee.
Let me guess... he's a DEM or a Marxist...
So where was the FBI when “Senator” Stuart Smalley was stealing an election in Minnesota?
Why bother stealing identities when you can merely conjure them from thin air. Like Harvey the rabbit.
