Former Republican Sen. Phil Gramm said Friday that he is stepping down as co-chairman of Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign amid criticism for saying last week that “we have sort of become a nation of whiners.”
Gramm on Friday said he would “join the growing number of rank-and-file McCain supporters.”
Democrats blasted Gramm for the comments, made in a Washington Times interview published July 10, and McCain forcefully repudiated the remarks.
While Gramm may have stepped down from being a campaign advisor, has he also been scratched from the short list for Secretary of the Treasury should McLame* actually win this election.
Update: You’ll note the asterisk I placed next to McLame’s name — here is why.
The more one looks, the less it looks like John McCain is eligible to run for President. The problem is simple: although born to two US citizens, McCain was not born in the United States, and thus, he’s a naturalized citizen, not a birthright citizen. Plenty of people will say differently, of course. But McCain’s always had a hefty chorus of yea-sayers, no matter what line of garbage he’s spewing at the moment. And this time out, it appears to be pretty much more of the same.
One wonders where is the MEDIA on this???? Why is the MMM giving McLame a PASS on his eligibility to run for pResident?
