WASHINGTON—According to a poll released Tuesday, nearly 20 percent of U.S. citizens now believe Barack Obama is a cactus, the most Americans to identify the president as a water- retaining desert plant since he took office.

The poll, conducted by the Pew Research Center, found a sharp rise in the number of Americans who say they firmly believe Obama was either born a cactus, became a cactus during his youth, or has questionable links to the Cactaceae family.

"We asked people of varying races, ages, and backgrounds the same question: 'What is President Barack Obama?'" Pew spokeswoman Jodi Miller told reporters. "And a fifth of them responded, 'A cactus.'"

I'm not going to vote for him in 2012. You need to give me a better reason than that to get off my ass and go to the polls.

10. I believe it. Have you ever seen the man drink water?

All his childhood pictures show him in a dry, arid area with little water in sight. Don't tell me you believe this is a coincidence.

Also, if you believe you've seen him drinking water, it is a Photoshop forgery.
