Why Barack Obama's Fans Are Fainting

This should have us all fainting!
Thanks so much Obama for allowing our children to have bigger and better things, such as the trillions of dollars in debt. The debt IS much bigger. Thanks for saving a RAT in San Francisco, that only cost $3 million. And to think i kill rodents in my home. $20 million to the needs of Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza rather than creating jobs here for AMERICANS. Thanks SOOOO much! This makes me want to faint as well.
My wife is a fainter....
My wife is a very tall (5'11") and very slender (115 lbs) woman of 25. She is very healthy, she eats her fruits and veggies and does not indulge in fast food. She drinks plenty of water and spends lots of time in the sun and enjoys it. But she is very susceptible to fainting.
1. She fainted during our wedding three years ago. She appeared to be ok and suddenly wobbled a bit and my best man caught her seconds before she fell.
2. She fainted a year later while standing in line with me waiting to see a movie. She leaned against the man in front of her, said something to him I couldn't hear, he turned around and caught her just as she slumped over.
3. She fainted while visiting the mall two months later. She was alone, looking at clothes, and another woman saw her fall backwards unconscious.
And she has fainted several times since. Each time she is going to faint, she says she feels nauseated, sweaty, and then things begin to sound farther and farther away, and she usually starts finding it hard to breathe. After that, she usually remembers nothing until she recovers wherever she happens to have been taken. Sometimes, the fainting occurs very quickly and once she feels the symptoms, it is already too late to ask for help or make an effort to sit down and she loses consciousness within moments. But now that she recognizes the symptoms, she can often ask someone nearby to help her or occasionally just sit down on the floor and then lie on her back.
Doctors have found no specific cause for it. Some believe it is vasovagal related, some believe it may be dehydration or low blood sugar. But regardless of cause, the fainting is very embarrassing to her and she feels distressed when it happens.
Duran Duran and Barack Obama
We just saw Duran Duran's concert. John Taylor performed the encore wearing a Barack Obama T-shirt.

I loved, "Why Barack Obama's Fans Are Fainting." It reminds me of an article I read in 1991 about an epidemic of women having dirty dreams about Bill Clinton.

I often hear about fainting but i did not really know more for sure what was the cause. But this article was very helpful for me, indeed.
I am one of OBAMA's fans and will share tis view with some friends of mine. Thanks.

I find these discussions very amusing. Sean Hannity made a big to-do about the fainting bit, too. But no one has looked at this logically. When there is a large number of people crammed into an enclosed area, it gets very warm and the oxygen level goes down. Of course, add that to not eating well or drinking enough water (standing in line for hours can make one hungry and keep one from being hydrated) and you've got a perfect storm. Go to church sometime on a busy Sunday during the hot months; even with air conditioning, without air movement (fans), it becomes stuffy and ripe for fainting.
I just wish I could get Sean to understand.
