CNN released a story claims that Mark Robinson, the North Carolina Republican candidate for governor used a username he allegedly used frequently online to make several inflammatory comments on a message board of a pornography website more than a decade ago, including one comment where he allegedly referred to himself as a "black NAZI!

Anyone who identifies as a Black Nazi and supports reinstating slavery has no place running for governor.
