Was Barack Obama In the 1993 Music Video For 'Whoomp (There It Is)'?

Funny, but no. Read the For and Against lists in the article.

Finally, a Barack Obama conspiracy theory for the rest of us! Everyone from Tea Partiers to hip hop message boards think Obama was an extra in the music video for Tag Team's single "Whoomp (There It Is)".

A tipster sent in a link to the music video for Tag Team's 1993 smash hit "Whoomp (There It Is)" along with the note: Barack in the Tag Team "Whoomp there it is" video. Don't believe me? Judge for yourself.

We were highly skeptical, since "Judge for yourself" sounds like something that precedes one of those multi-colored ALL CAPS emails that proves Barack Obama is the Anti-Christ, as predicted in THE BIBLE. But after watching the video, we had to admit that at 1:01 there is a guy who does resemble Barack Obama, talking on a cell phone! Seriously! Look for yourself!

1. Yeah, like he'd wear three rings on the fingers of one hand.

Besides that, I'd like to see the guy in the video's birth certificate.

6. If this was real the right wing would have dug it up during the campaign and used it.

7. Is that an earring in his left ear?

I don't recall seeing any visible holes on Obama's left ear lobe. Seriously, the indentation never goes completely away.

OTOH, and even if it were......so?
