We reported how Chad was an OFA volunteer, and that he himself claimed to have been paid for “posting political stuff” for advocacy, that it was “sort of my job”. Of course, all the political stuff he posted was of Barack Obama, so I wonder who was paying him. He later claimed that he had been joking about being paid.
Remember the story behind Chad and his father? Neither he nor his father had money, Chad was a poor student, and that was why they needed to be “saved” by the “affordability” of Obamacare.
Yet, now, we hear that Chad seems to have donated $1,000 to Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign.
Does anyone think that a normal 20 year old without resources is going to donate $1000 to a political campaign?
Of course, one possibility is that it is donated in his name by someone who can no longer legally donate. Perhaps Chad would like to answer that question…
Via Breitbart:
21 year old Chad Henderson has rocketed to fame over the past few days as the only known person to have successfully signed up for Obamacare. The mainstream media has trumpeted his story at every opportunity.
As it turns out, much of his story may not be true. At the very least, it is incomplete.
First, his father stated and the Washington Post confirmed that Chad had, in fact, not successfully signed up for Obamacare.
Then on Friday Breitbart’s John Sexton reported a 9 month old tweet from Chad Henderson claiming to have donated $1,000 to President Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign. In addition, Henderson was a vocal Obama for America volunteer, and claimed to have been invited to President Obama’s 2013 inauguration. In their initial reports, mainstream media outlets had characterized Henderson as an average young person not much involved in politics.
