This is true, but my fear is that the cons and McCain would probably use this as mud slinging saying, he can't be trusted, because of "folks he associated himself with."
I hope they do so, even more evidence of their stupidity.
That would be like saying, "his father was a child molester, so his son is too!"

Let McCain keep slingin' mud, the more he throws the bigger hole he creates that he's sinking into.

Yes, he did, didn't he? It would be such justice.

Lots of respect you have for this country.

I'm pretty skeptical of the "birth certificate" issue, but if it does prove to be true, then Obama should be disqualified from running.
Did you not read the rest of my post? I never said a candidate can't be disqualified because of long campaigning, but don't you think that even BEFORE he campaigned that the government will look heavily into his background before even letting him run? Please, why would Obama try to hide his citizenship? Running for PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES is the last job someone who has a fake birth certificate would want to try to hide and get away with. Lots of respect you have for this country if you honestly think the government and its people are so dumb to put someone who wasn't born in the country to be our President.

McCain best not try that stunt: he was born in the US Canal Zone.

Too: anybody remember George Romney (Mitt's father)? George was born in Chihuahua, Mx to US citizens who were residents.........which could have backfired against him back in 1968 had he won the GOP nomination. Stricktly speaking; George was a Mexican.

Remember that Obama's mom was a US citizen so Barack would have been just as 'American' as the two above Republicans.

On the off chance that Obama is indeed disqualified of the above allegations are true-----------Hillary would probably default back in and the Dems would still win. The economy basically is destroying support for McCain.

Military kids are exempt. That is clear and it is the law.

Born to US Citizen who are in our military you are a US Citizen, otherwise you are NOT.

This doesn't matter to me at all. McCain wasn't born in the USA either, he was born in Panama. On a base. So what, he wasn't born on USA soil in one of the 52 states.

No, he was born on a US Federal Reservation established by Executive Order in 1920.
