Actually, there was some talk in the media in 2008 questioning John McCain's eligibility based on his having been born in Panama--maybe that was mainly to divert attention from Obama's eligibility.

Obama could have prevented the whole controversy for $10 in 2008--that he spent so much time and money fighting the issue suggests that he has something to hide. It might not be his place of birth but something else that the documents might reveal.

In the old days that would have been a red flag for the press - they would have looked into it... today it just means 'writing the pass' faster.

Yet, we're supposed to just believe that it was merely a coincidence that both presidential candidates had "issues" surrounding their eligibility.
