And at one time Panama was part of the United States but not as a state. We gave them their freedom in the 1970's. Just because a person goes to several schools doesn't mean they have a bad education. I personally went to over 10 schools and I don't feel my education was deprived. If anything it was stronger because a lot of times I had to catch up to the school I was in. True McCain wasn’t born in the United States but any military base is considered United States of America.

Excellent summaries, clearly unbiased. I wasn't aware of the "Punk" and "McNasty" monikers. They seem to fit though, given Punk's calling an especially significant family member a bad name that rhymes with runt. Nice work, Joe. Excellent summaries, clearly unbiased.

As for Tennessee, somebody needs to tell the hatemongers that the "American Melting Pot" applies all the way to the tip-top job holder in the land, too.

If Obama becomes president. how do we know for sure he will be the first black? I refer to the ability of DNA labs to now test for ETHNIC dna. No all at once now, but everyone run out to all the past presidents library's, exhibits, etc. and pilfer a strand of hair. I'm sure all exhibits display a lock of hair, right? Then we get it tested and see who was black. If I was in Obama's camp, I'd be doing this right now. It might take a little starch out of those Tennessee voters who seem to hate black so much, if they were to find out Lincoln was a black. I'm sort of entertained by the thought. Hey,
