Obama 1999 Cocaine Allegations Go Unanswered By Campaign

WorldNetDaily reports:

For the second day in a row, the Barack Obama campaign has refused to respond to requests for comment on a Minnesota man's allegations he shared cocaine with Obama in 1999, when the man who now is a contender for the Democratic nomination for president was a state lawmaker in Illinois.

Yesterday, the campaign declined to respond to telephone calls. Today, the campaign's "Communications Team" acknowledged receiving an e-mail request from WND but did not answer the questions about the allegations.

"Thank you so much for your interview request," said the automatic response. "It is now in our system and our communications team will follow-up with you when we have a better idea of your request's status. We understand the difficulties a delay in response may cause and certainly appreciate your patience," the Obama campaign e-mail said.

"We will touch base with you as soon as we have an update," it continued.

It was signed "Communications Team Obama for America."

WND has reported on claims made by Larry Sinclair, of Minnesota, who alleges he took cocaine in 1999 with Obama, and participated in homosexual acts with him.

Sinclair said his story was ignored by the news media, so he made his case last month in a YouTube video, which has now been viewed about 350,000 times.

When it still was ignored, Sinclair said, he filled a lawsuit in Minnesota District Court, alleging threats and intimidation by Obama's staff.

Sinclair, who says he is willing to submit to a polygraph test to validate his claims, will now get his chance – thanks to a website offering $10,000 for the right to record it and $100,000 to Sinclair if he passes.

"My motivation for making this public is my desire for a presidential candidate to be honest," Sinclair told WND by telephone. "I didn't want the sex thing to come out. But I think it is important for the candidate to be honest about his drug use as late as 1999."

If this story is true,it might be a problem to say the least.
