you mean no-one you were aware of....I think that both McCain and the RNC knew, but were afraid of being labeled a racist for calling Obama on it.....cowards both!

The NBC eligibility requirement was written for a purpose. You cannot be a conservative if you support ignoring the provisions of Article II, whether it is a Democrat or a Republican candidate that fails the test.

No one I was aware of means, importantly, nobody on this forum. You weren't here then, so I can't hold you responsible.

But there are now numerous FReepers espousing your opinion...and none of them were espousing it in 2008. Nor was anybody else.

You think McCain and the RNC "knew" Obama wasn't eligible and that is the reason they passed the McCain eligibility resolution. But that resolution was dated April 10, 2008 an passe April 30, 2008 -- before it was certain that Obama would be the Democrat nominee.

And, by the way, I am not "ignoring" the provisions of Article II. I am honoring them as they have been defined by Congress. Your definition is, for the present, your own.
