Well, yeah. From about February to April or so of 2008 the liberal press was all over McCain about his natural born status. They dropped it after the senate resolution in which obama inserted some key language.
On April 10, 2008 Senator Claire McCaskill (D-MO) introduces Senate Resolution S. Res. 511 to recognize that John Sidney McCain is a natural born citizen. The resolution is allegedly meant to clarify that McCain is eligible to be President even though he was born in Panama. Because McCains parents were both Americans and he was born in Panama because his father was stationed there while in the military, existing law already covers McCain and he is eligible to be President. McCaskills resolution thus serves no purpose except that language is included to try and provide a blanket cover for other foreign born candidates without military backgrounds, in order to enable Obama to be eligible to be President. This is the language that Obama inserted Whereas previous presidential candidates were born outside of the United States of America and were understood to be eligible to be President; This Clause has no particular relevance to McCain [The language is inserted by Obama.][301,303]

The Dems did this to prop McCain up because that is who they wanted to run against - a loser who if he by some means won - would be a Dem anyway.
If this jerk off RINO Juan McCain had been bounced - we might have gotten Fred or even Rudy or Mitt - with Fred being my first choice.
