Former Navy chaplain offers 'free' ebook alleging that President Obama has been 'ruled by up to 50 different evil spirits'

If you give a donation of any amount to Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt, PhD, of Pray in Jesus Name so that he can mobilize 2 million Christian voters by November 6, you get a "free" ebook, The Demons of Barack H. Obama: How the Gift of Discerning of Spirits Reveals Unseen Forces Influencing American Politics.  Klingenschmitt, a fundamentalist Christian popular with the far right, was discharged from his chaplaincy position in the Navy following a court martial.  He recently received his PhD and refers to himself as "Dr. Chaps."

According to Klingenschmitt's email alert about his offer, the book "has the power to awaken Church voters!" Among other things, the book examines:

--How to operate in the spiritual gift of discerning of spirits? (read Chapter 1 of the book.)

--Whether it is possible for a self-proclaimed Christian like President Barack H. Obama to be ruled by demons? (read page 29 of the book.)

--What the Bible says about how to see demons? (read p. 39).

--Whether President Obama is personally ruled by 50 demons?

All these answers are given specifically, just read Chapters 3 & 4, which apply my own PhD-level theological method to my friend Historian David Barton’s analysis of real-world events from 2009 to 2012.

Barton's recent history book, The Jefferson Lies, was dropped by Thomas Nelson Publishing because the publisher “lost confidence in the book’s details” after conservative clergy and both liberal and conservative leaning historians challenged the truth of Barton's facts.  A comprehensive analysis of the details contained in Barton's book is given in Debunking David Barton's Jefferson Lies, written by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation's senior researcher, Chris Rodda.

But Klingenschmitt's mission is not necessarily to publish a history book.  Instead, as explained in his email announcement, it is to motivate Christian voters to discern demonic spirits at work in the White House:

I just earned my PhD in Theology by writing my dissertation on the spiritual gift of discerning of spirits (explained in the Bible as the supernatural ability God gives some people to see angels, demons, and the Holy Spirit).

Do you believe in God, the Holy Spirit, Angels, and Demons?

I do. But these spirits are invisible, unless you have the gift.

My new book explains how YOU can receive the gift/ability to see the spirits! Not only that, it reveals 50 hidden demons ruling the heart of the 44th President of the United States, Barack H. Obama.

Am I saying Obama is demon-possessed? No. (see page 12 of the book.)

Am I saying Obama has been ruled, at different times, but up to 50 different evil spirits, as historically proven by his words and deeds? Yes. (see ch. 3 & 4 of the book).

Using the same PhD tested theological method I successfully defended in my PhD dissertation, I have developed a way to help you see the invisible spirits ruling in the heart of the 44th President.

And not only can you see them, but anybody can apply my method to see the evil spirits actually ruling Obama’s heart.

Sounds crazy? No, it’s actually logical, systematic, and biblical.

If this doesn't sound crazy to you, you can get the book at ObamasDemons.com.  Here's a partial screenshot of the email (the whole thing could not be captured due to its length):
