Obama says it is possible Russia would try to sway U.S. election

U.S. President Barack Obama said it was possible that Russia would try to influence the U.S. presidential election, after a leak of Democratic National Committee emails that experts have attributed to Russian hackers.

"Anything is possible," Obama told NBC News in an interview broadcast on Tuesday when asked if the Russians would try to influence the Nov. 8 election.

Obama said the Federal Bureau of Investigation was investigating the leak on Friday of more than 19,000 DNC emails, which showed the committee had favored Hillary Clinton over Senator Bernie Sanders for the party's presidential nomination.

"I know that experts have attributed this to the Russians," Obama said.

"What we do know is that the Russians hack our systems, not just government systems but private systems," he said.

One DNA plans the story in the Crossroads Iowa Press and now the other DNCer can claim it was in the press.
I read that Hillary and Huma are lovers. Guess that is true. What else have I read recently? Oh, Bill isn't Chelsea's father. That Vince Foster and Hillary were lovers.
I am glad now that they are all true and not made up like the Russians did it.

But what about Hillary’ “reset” and Obama’s promise of more flexibility after his re-election? Did he undo Bush’s warmongering? Didn’t he get the Nobel Peace Prize? Wouldn’t the Russians want Hill to win? Aren’t Russian plots just more 80’s style thinking?

No. But if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it.

Anything is possible doesn't sound ANYTHING like, "Keep your bear snout out of our business unless you want a beating," does it?
