I am going to present a bizarre scenario to the 2008 Presidential election campaign.

It is alleged on September 1, 2008, in a breaking story on CNBC, that John McCain is Barack Obama's biological father.

The allegation takes the nation and the world by storm, and throws the Presidential election campaign on it's ear.

As it turns out, in late 1960, while on flight training in Hawaii, McCain had a brief relationship with a black American woman who was a resident in Hawaii.  From this relationship, a baby boy was born on August 4, 1961.

The name of the birth mother was given on the birth certificate, but the name of the birth father was given as "unknown."  The birth mother did not want to damage McCain's promising military career in any way, and therefore gave the name of the father as "unknown." 

The birth mother gave up the baby for adoption the day he was born to American Ann Dunham, who is white, from Wichita, KS, and her husband Barack Obama, who is black, originally from Kenya, who were living in Hawaii at the time.  The young couple were overjoyed at adopting a strong, healthy baby boy, and named him Barack Obama, after his adoptive father, and giving him the middle name of Hussein.

The birth mother was pleased that since the baby was of mixed black and white parentage that he was adopted by a couple also of mixed black and white parentage.

Both McCain and Obama deny the allegations from CNBC, but CNBC stands behind it's story as factual, and wants both McCain and Obama to submit to a DNA test.  The tests take place, and prove that McCain is in fact Obama's biological father.

CNBC had been given the details of Obama's biological parentage by the daughter of Obama's birth mother.  The birth mother had gone to her grave in 2006, revealing to no one except for her daughter, who was born in 1965, that she was in fact the birth mother of rising poltiical star Barack Obama.

How does this dramatic development affect the 2008 race for President?

Please discuss.

You stole this idea from JSojourner:

What if Barack could prove he was John McCain's black love-child?  You know, the one the 2000 Bush campaign talked about in South Carolina....

This would only work as an interesting twist if McCain revealed it to Obama in a debate:

"Rev. Wright never told you the truth about your father......I AM YOUR FATHER."



I never stole this idea from anyone.  Thoughts on this theme have been floating around for some time now, in various venues.  It is nothing original, not for myself, and not for JSojourner.

My scenario is the first on this forum, that I am aware of, to actually plot out in detail a plausable, reasonable, and realistic explanation of how this event could have actually taken place.

I have expanded greatly on this matter, rather than just saying, "what if McCain was Obama's father."
