Interesting People - Craig Cobb (We need a new Daft People section)

White supremacist Craig Cobb has achieved national notoriety in the USA, by attempting to turn Leith, North Dakota into an all-white enclave.

(The town of Leith has even gone so far as to create its own national socialist hunting flag, complete with stag horns and only a small “discreet” swastika.  If they tried that in Germany, they'd be arrested.

However, what makes this story so much fun is, according to the Telegraph, Mr Cobb may now be unable to meet the racial purity benchmark he set to settle in his own town after the tests showed he was 14 per cent sub-Saharan African.  His interview on the Trisha Show is a must see (normally I'm not a fan of daytime TV, but this one is priceless).

DNA tests are so cool. If you don't believe me, read this:  http://web.mit.edu/racescience/in_media/what_dna_says_about_human/)

BTW - You will hear him spout the old "Oil and water don't mix" phrase.  However:-
