I believe the two Clinton friends were going to protest irregularities in the caucuses, not eligibility. Those issues would have sunk Barry’s run. At that point, the eligibility issues were already mostly off the table.
A friend of the Clinton’s made a documentary making the claim that the two friends were silenced precisely because they were giong to bring up the eligibility issue at the convention. Unfortunately I can’t remember names and details, pinging a couple of people who might remember.
Do either of you remember the friend of the Clintons who made that video about the other 2 friends getting killed, who were going to bring up eligibility at the convention? I think her first name was Beverly (yeah, big help!).
