FACT CHECK: Did the 2012 Barack Obama presidential campaign distribute a button featuring a Confederate flag?

Claim: The 2012 Barack Obama presidential campaign distributed a button featuring a Confederate flag.

FALSE

Origins: On 23 June 2015, the web site Gateway Pundit published an item stating that Barack Obama’s 2012 presidential campaign had issued buttons featuring a Confederate flag:

While it’s true that the above-displayed quotation was taken from a speech delivered by Barack Obama at the Constitution Center in 2008 (titled “A More Perfect Union”), the pictured button was not an official 2012 presidential campaign pin.

Images of a similar 1992 Clinton campaign button were circulated online in June 2015 in the midst of a national controversy over the continued flying of a Confederate flag over the South Carolina State House Building. But no written or photographic records documenting the existence of such an Obama campaign pin were found prior to June 2015, and the Obama campaign could not possibly have issued such a button without drawing a wealth of media scrutiny and criticism.

It appears that someone simply Photoshopped the pin or ordered it through a custom print shop service such as Zazzle.com in order to capitalize on the current Confederate flag controversy in South Carolina, during which vendors such as eBay, Walmart, and Zazzle announced they would stop selling Confederate flag memorabilia:

No fact check on Bill Clinton stars and bars buttons? How convient and dishonest of you to address it/dismiss it.

Heres a sample of the thread that said Obama had that pin

That's different, he's a Democrat racist

It's different, it's not real.

All these Democrat politicians are such two faced LYING HYPOCRITES

how anyone votes for them is beyond me

they lie right in FACE

How many nutters think that this pin is an Obama campaign pin?

Since about 98% of Shootspeeder threads turn out to be false I'm not wondering about the authenticity of the OP anymore. I'm wondering how many times do cons have to be tricked before saying "shame on me"

That pin looks hella fake

LOL...Once again, One site makes a claim and the republican echo chamber copies it and doesnt think for one second to confirm the bullshit.

i'm a dumbass for knowing it was a fake? i'm confused here, are you admitting that both the clinton/gore '92 and obama 2012 buttons are fake? or are you just saying that about the obama 2012 button?

 

[Wyatt earp]

Wow just realized 10 fucking years went by closed caption reading your partisan hack and you never grew up.

Always the same.

So sad.
