Dubya Mitt Romney continues to embrace crazy people. Introducing 'reverse birthersm':
----
The top election official in Arizona, fresh off his flirtation with birtherism, has moved on to a strange new conspiracy theory involving President Barack Obama.
Secretary of State Ken Bennett says hes convinced Obama was born in Hawaii, but he now believes the president fraudulently claimed to be born in Kenya so he could get into college. He also believes the president has spent millions of dollars since then to cover it up.
The co-chairman of Mitt Romneys campaign in Arizona, Bennett made the comments recently at an event where he pleaded for local Republicans to unite behind their partys presumptive nominee for president. He told them a world under Obama is just very, very scary.
Now, I know theres a lot of people that are very skeptical as to whether he was born in Hawaii, Bennett told the crowd. Personally I believe that he was. I actually believe he was fibbing about being born in Kenya when he was trying to get into college and doing things like writing a book and on and on and on.
