In a stunning turn of events, president elect Barack Obama came out today and acknowledged that his existence has been fabricated and he is not the man that the Democratic party has endorsed throughout this epic campaign.

OBAMA actually stands for Optimal Black Affable Male American and is actor Jamal Robinson created by a committee that works for the Democratic Party. Due to the re-election of Bush over the previous nominee John Kerry the party was not wiling to take any chances this time around. Representative Donald McCarty reveals all in his tell-all book "The Audacity of Hope (is well founded)" in which he explains that the average American voter could not be trusted to vote for a candidate who may not be completely perfect. "After Bush was re-elected we knew we couldn't stand behind any mere mortal and had to do something drastic. We feared the Republican party would convince the everyday voter that Bush was allowed to run for a third term and it was a chance we could not take."

McCarthy admits that not everything went according to plan. The idea to make give him the middle name of Hussein was probably a mistake, as well as his wife's absurd fashion sense. "We knew we were gambling with his heritage, but we never thought that having a woman with an average sensibility about what to wear would be so criticized." The operation was a considerable success overall however, as younger voters were encouraged to vote and the whole world was captivated by OBAMA's rhetorical skills.

"We don't really know what we're going to do now" added McCarthy. "We never thought things would escalate so far and should have really planned the end out better." The committee hopes that America will forgive their pretentious attitude and deception and really is sorry, and hopes everything sorts itself out soon.
