    It's "I" following a "being" verb.

    I 'hate' that "I", or "ME" stuff...

    Why don't you just add the word "who" in front of "suggested"... and delete the "that'... I KNOW it doesn't answer your question... EXACTLY... I'm not an English teacher, but I KNOW it would 'read' much easier...

    If I HAVE to offer an answer... (that is like taking a BET)... I'll BET on "I"... WHY... Because it doesn't SOUND right.... but for some reason, I have it in my head that "I" is the right answer... in spite of the fact that it doesn't "SOUND" right!!!

    Interesting!

    it doesn't sound right either way, you can just say "i was the one who suggested" or "i was the one that suggested" or just "i suggested" :D
