“McCain can still win the Presidency when Obama becomes ruled ineligible!”

I don’t think so.

A majority of Americans chose the Obama/Biden ticket to be President and Vice President.

Should Obama be disqualified, Biden is logically in line to become President.

no if Obama is disqualed so is Biden. The dems have nothing in their convention rule books for this. So who knows? this is unprecedented.

That would be incorrect. When Obama is ruled ineligible, McCain, who had the next most Electoral Votes, would be named President. It would be as though Obama never ran at all. Thus, McCain would be declared President. Biden would be lucky to keep the V.P. position because they “could” DQ him as well leaving it to Palin.

McCain would also win on the 2nd phase if it went to The House for vote. They would ONLY have McCain to vote on since he was the only other candidate to receive Electoral Votes.
