The Facebook page of the American President Barack Obama has been flooded with comments from supporters of a candidate in Egypt\'s presidential election, the Next Web news site reports. Followers of the Salafist presidential candidate have pressed for Obama to support their claim that the immigration paperwork is fraudulent. This comes on the back of news that follows Abu Ismail may be barred from the poll because his mother held dual American and Egyptina nationalities. Egypt\'s electoral commission has said Mr Abu Ismail\'s late mother became a naturalised US citizen in October 2006. Most of the positing on Obama\'s facebook page are in Arabic, but one comment - posted by several users - said in English: \"His mother was a scholar in America, she got an American Green Card, but American Authorities are trying to claim that she wasn\'t an American citizen.\" Another user asked: \"If the US administration has official documents, why not display them?\" The sheer number of posts are now temporarily preventing the \"Wall\" feature of the social media sites from being used as a forum to generate support for Mr Obama ahead of the US presidential vote on November 6. The Next Web news site stated that this is not the first time that one of the American President\'s social media profiles has been \"flooded with comments from another country\", pointing to the mass posting on his Google+page by Chinese citizens after the network was unblocked in China in February.
