This is complete idiocy. The FEC is tasked with monitoring campaign finance laws only. It is NOT tasked with determining if the candidate is eligible for the office they are raising money for. What the FEC has said is that the person in question can raise money so long as they don't violate the laws governing who can contribute and how much.

But then again, it is a WND post after all.

And check out my post 39 - where they had the discretion to apply eligibility, they found him ineligible.

This is why, long ago, I put WND at the same veracity level as supermarket tabloids. Heck, even the National Equirer does better.
