Report: 70% of Obama’s Twitter Followers Are Fake

WHO BOUGHT OR CREATED FAKE TWITTER FOLLOWERS FOR OBAMA?

(Aug. 24, 2012) — A New York Times article dated August 22, 2012 has identified a website established to determine whether or not Twitter followers are “real” as reports of people purchasing Twitter followers to boost their online image have risen.

A comedian who wanted more Twitter followers reportedly purchased more than 200,000 “followers,” boosting his “Following” number to 223,325 as of August 24, 2012.  It is reportedly simple and inexpensive to purchase Twitter followers.

Toward the bottom of The New York Times article, it is stated that the website which analyzes whether followers are real or fake reports that 70% of Barack Obama’s followers are a combination of “fake” and “inactive.”

When entering in Obama’s Twitter name, “@BarackObama,” the following results are shown:

Obama’s Twitter account is reportedly managed, and its tweets published, by a Twitter account at “#Obama2012,” for which real and fake results were unavailable:

However, the #Obama2012 Twitter account reports 18,832,994 followers and that it is following 673,834 other Twitterers.  Is this possible?

If one clicks on “Followers” on Obama’s Twitter page, a list containing many strange screen names and “tweets” having nothing to do with Obama’s re-election campaign appears.  Warning:  Offensive content.  Are a total of 70% of these “followers” “fake” or “inactive?”  How many represent real people?

When The Post & Email performed a query on its own Twitter followers, the following results came up:

The Post & Email has never purchased Twitter followers and was unaware of the practice until reading The Times’s article today.

Is the Obama campaign aware that a total of 70% of its followers are “fake” or “inactive?” Is it how Obama “controlled the media” during the 2008 election?  Is he faking the numbers for this election?

Twitterer Brad Thor has posted a tweet that “more than half”of Obama’s Twitter followers are “fake.”  Are people starting to get “real?”

What else about Obama is fake?

• A criminal investigation conducted by Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his Cold Case Posse have determined that Obama’s long-form “birth certificate” posted on the internet on April 27, 2011 is “a computer-generated forgery.”
• The same investigative team concluded that Obama’s Selective Service registration card was created digitally and, like the “birth certificate,” did not originate with a paper document.  Selective Service Administration Director Lawrence Romo refused to investigate when Mike Zullo, the lead investigator of the posse, asked to examine the original after having reported the “document” which was sent to members of the public, including this publication, and posted on the internet, to be a forgery.
• An Ohio private investigator, Susan Daniels, found that Obama has been using a Social Security number for 30 years or more which was issued to an individual in the state of Connecticut.  A lawsuit filed by Atty. Orly Taitz to obtain a certified copy of Obama’s original application was denied by Judge Royce C. Lamberth on the grounds that it would invade Obama’s privacy.  Social Security fraud can be reported here.
• The short-form “Certification of Live Birth” posted on the internet in June 2008 has been declared a forgery.
• The Post & Email has been told, but cannot conclusively confirm, that Obama is using a fake identity and that his parents, birthplace, birth date, background and schooling are not what has been represented by the media. Zullo expressed doubts about Obama’s birth date and parentage in the July 17 press conference held in Maricopa County.
• The Post & Email has reason to believe that Obama trolls the internet under many fake identities and is subscribed to this website under several of them.  Various personalities have emerged with these identities and have eventually left comments revealing that they are fake.
• The Post & Email believes that various pro-Obama websites such as nativeborncitizen.wordpress.com are operated by “fake” supporters with the purpose of spreading disinformation and propaganda about anyone investigating Obama’s eligibility, background or reporting on those who stand up to government corruption.
• We have reason to believe, but cannot prove, that the results of polls reflecting a close race between Obama and Romney, or that Obama is “leading by 9 percentage points,” are false.
• When The Post & Email recently responded to a subscriber and constant complainer with the question, “BTW, is XXXXX your real name?” we never heard from him again.
• Congress has been informed of Obama’s fraud and done nothing about it.
• Obama continues to refuse to release his college transcripts and applications, which Donald Trump has said he believed would demonstrate that Obama had attended college as “a foreign student.”
• Donald Trump says he has “a big surprise” to be released at the Republican National Convention next week.
