"Fox & Friends" Host Steve Doocy Falsely Identifies Barack Obama At Polling Place, Says Of Black Man: "There He Is!"

"Fox & Friends" host Steve Doocy falsely identified Barack Obama while waiting for the Democratic nominee to emerge at his polling place in Chicago Tuesday morning.

"There he is, he just walked in," Doocy said, as the image of a casually dressed, random black man appeared across the screen. "That's a picture, the back of his head, into the gymnasium to cast his vote. I think we know who he's gonna be voting for."

Co-hosts Brian Kilmeade and Gretchen Carlson immediately expressed skepticism that it was indeed Obama, and moments later Carlson announced that Obama had just pulled up to the polling location.

Hey, Steve, I saw Obama in LA this morning, Black guy, slender, a little over six feet.

Steve Douchie needs to go ahead and come out of the closet.

these fox news clowns need to go away. unfortunately, they will be around knocking our new president for the next 8 years.

Doocy is from the evangelical crowd in Kansas and that explains it. The same crowd that dumped the theory of evolution.

Doocy wanted people to think the black guy in the beanie cap was Obama. he has a big problem with his passive aggressive anger.

I think you'll find that just because the 'casually dressed black man' walks into the poll, a thin (possibly) black man in a suit walks in with what almost looks like a handler / secret service in a suit. It did look like he was being flanked.

I wouldn't have called it so soon if I were Doocy, but I don't think it actually makes him a 'racist' (as some commenters are arguing). I'd laugh and say 'Bad call. It's Live TV though, so I'll forgive you.")

Just pick a black man, any one will do...WTF?

This ain't the LAPD, man!

[Bubbaboy]

If you guys will watch the video the casually dressed black man is not even in frame when Steve mentions the back of the other man in a suit. This post is stupid.
