So wait, it wasn't a secret? Chester Arthur admitted that his father was born in Ireland? Then either the voters who put Garfield/Arthur into office were not as refined as you (i.e. didn't define NBC as you do), or they knew that it didn't matter (i.e. didn't define NBC as you do).

What an absurd claim! Are you TRYING to be deceptive? Not only did Chester Arthur lie to the interviewers about his father emigrating directly to the United states. He also lied when he said that his father was naturalized as a U.S. citizen BEFORE the birth of Chester Arthur. If that had been true, instead of a lie, then the voters would not have been deceived into voting for a candidate they were led to believe had a father who was a naturalized U.S. citizen at the time of birth. In other words, Hnman tried to persuade voters to believe Chester Arthur was born in Northern Ireland. He wasn't. He was born in the United States. The voters were informed by Chester Arthur that his father was born in Northern Ireland and was a naturalized U.S. citizen. No one ever told the voters Chester Arthur's father was not a naturalized U.S. citizen when Chester Arthur was born.

So, your comment is false and deceptive.
