John McCain took the microphone away from a woman at one of his rallies this week after she said Barack Obama was “an Arab”.
This is an interview with the woman, 75 year-old Gayle Quinnel, done by a live streaming cell phone. Interviewers include Noah Kunin, Senior Political Correspondent from TheUpTake.org, Adam Aigner of NBC News and Dana Bash of CNN.
Quinnel said that she obtained the information on Obama being an Arab at “her local library” and from a pamphlet obtained at a local McCain campaign office (provided by a fellow volunteer not the campaign itself). She has taken it upon herself to redistribute the information as widely as possible by making copies of the pamphlet and sending it to random names in the phone book.
