@BarackObama should shoot off a message to @RobertKennedyJr and see if the Kennedy family has any suggestions on how to mitigate this.

When you are on the water, wear a life jacket.

You (almost) never hear of a drowning victim who was wearing a life jacket.  Hypothermia is a different matter.

Damn, he was only 43 years old.  I was thinking that maybe  Barry was sleeping with the fishes.

If it wasn't Barry's old boyfriend Reggie in the drink, then perhaps Obama's been "paddleboarding" with a new fella.

They’re a lot of black paddle boarders in Martha’s Vineyard, right?   :smokin:

Does that mean Obumber will be looking for a new boyfriend?

Maybe/probably  "paddle boarding" means a different thing to Obumber than it does you or I?

Bet he played for the other team.

Big Mike's or Barry's.   

Wait...it could be the same team.

They've identified the deceased as the chef. Isn't that kind of odd? This guy works as a "chef" for a family that are rarely at the home?

Even better: a chef who made numerous social media posts about how he could swim.

Multiple media outlets have reported that The former White House chef who drowned in the waters of Obamas Martha’s Vineyard estate could not swim and that is the reason why he drowned.  However, these videos prove that he had a strong swimming ability and was able to do back stroke, breast stroke and front crawl.

If Mike and Barry weren't home at the time, what was the cook doing there? Did he have a key, or did they just leave it under the front door mat?

What is it people think is being covered up?  Sounds like a (booze triggered) tragedy.

Whoa!  This is getting weird.

@Jack Russell

Of course the cook lived there. You don't really expect  the Obummers to come home at 10 pm on a Tuesday night after a trip to Europe, and be hungry,and not have someone there to cook them a meal,do you?

What do you think  they are,barbarians?  </S>

@Right_in_Virginia

Could have been something as common as a stroke or a heart attack. Or even muscle spasms.

 Pretty much any physical problem you  might have can quickly become a serious event if you are alone in deep water on a paddle board.

Sometimes an accident is nothing but an accident,and being out on the water alone  is just asking for trouble.

Watch the video and tell me if you believe that this guy died the way the MSM portrays the story!

How many Seth Rich-type incidents like this are going to have to happen before stories like this stop being internet gaffs?

He wasn't alone. All early reports said someone was paddleboarding with him.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Watched the video. He had swim fins on in the video (more thrust with a flutter kick), and wasn't making killer progress down the pool with those.
He may have been trained, but that does not equal proficient.
Wild open water is different from a pool.

How big a pond?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

@mountaineer

That may be why  the police found him so quickly,and he didn't just drift out to sea to disappear  forever.

I wonder why that person wasn't mentioned in the report?

My question, too. They were quick to note the Obamas weren't there at the time, though. And that made me wonder about their arrangement with the cook. Does he stay in Martha's Vineyard year-round (with his wife and two children)? Does he live on premises? I realize these questions are not terribly relevant to what happened, but I just wondered.

WHEW!  Drowning has to be a terrible way to go though.  I'm sorry for his wife and children.  Just awful.

Now it's being said the Obamas actually were on MV, they just weren't at the mansion when this happened.

... Campbell had been paddle boarding with another person at around 7.40pm on Sunday, with witnesses saying he was dressed in all black and not wearing a life preserver. ...

‘He wasn’t wearing a life jacket or a flotation device, and he was wearing dark clothing at night. It took them almost 18 hours to recover him when he wasn’t that far out.'   ...

Campbell's body was recovered at around 10am on Monday, as the Obama's office confirmed to The Boston Globe that they had been 'elsewhere on the island' when the sous chef was on the water. ...
