What is John McCain's Civil Rights record, and what do you think that it will look like in the future?

Favorite Answer

John McCain was not born in the U.S.. Read your Constitution.

Article Two of the Constitution sets the principal qualifications to be eligible for election as President. A Presidential candidate must:

* be a natural-born citizen of the United States
(McCain was born in Panama....... he is therefore a Panamanian natural)
Born August 29, 1936 Coco Solo Naval Air Station, Panama Canal Zone (per Wikipedia)

* have been resident in the United States for at least fourteen years (At the time of the creation of the article)

Anyone who would have been eligible under the 14 year rule would have died from old age in the mid 1800's. (I know McCain is a fossil, but I doubt that he is over 200 years old)

So unless we as Americans once again allow our Constitution to be violated, McCain cannot legally be sworn in as President. (Funny thing....no one has touched on this question)
I guess that W and company feel that they have sufficiently loaded the Supreme Court with lackeys, so they need not worry about it. They will just have the stooges rule that it is O.K. like they did with Al Gore back in 2000.

So what difference would his stand on Civil Rights make? At this rate he can be whatever he wants and it won't matter. Of course I suppose that minorities could vote for him and be like Oliver holding out their hands and begging for a few crumbs from the Republicans when he gets in....Show more

Does it really matter how the African-American community views McCain, if he runs against Obama?....Show more

I think he only sees Americans. You should straighten him out about how to separate groups out for bribes, pity, government programs. And racial hatred can be the driving force for it. Show him the way.........

WTF are minority rights? I have searched the constitution and just can't find them....Show more
