The U.S. has had Presidential candidates and Presidents who were known criminals, prevaricators and very immoral, promiscuous men who harmed national security. John McCain is no exception. However, does the public and do Republican delegates and leaders really want to pay the same costs in the future of America for McCain that they paid in the past for nominating and helping elect illicit Presidents?

This article contains a description of many of the known crimes, moral transgressions and allegations of nuclear treason by John McCain. Some of these crimes may have been felonies and if so, would have also made McCain ineligible to be President should he have been prosecuted (as he should have been) and convicted.

The information about McCain in this article has been made available to Duncan Hunter, former Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, via the appropriate members of his Congressional staff and his national campaign director, all of who know me. Since withdrawing as a Republican Presidential nominee candidate on January 23, 2008, Duncan Hunter has campaigned for Presidential nominee candidate Mike Huckabee and has had, and continues to have, an opportunity to communicate this information about McCain to his fellow Baptist, Mike Huckabee.

Duncan Hunter, as a Republican leader and a Christian, has a moral obligation, responsibility and civic duty, and as an act of conscience to ask Mike Huckabee to publicly ask his delegates not to vote to nominate McCain and to publicly tell them why. Regardless of what Huckabee may or may not do, Duncan Hunter’s conscience as a Christian should also tell him that he also has a moral responsibility before God to tell the public and the Republican party (and his one delegate) not to vote for McCain for the nomination and Presidency and WHY.

The Republican delegates and Party must be told by Huckabee and/or Hunter what they know about McCain and why Republicans need to nominate someone else besides McCain as the Republican Presidential candidate. God WILL HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE AND IN JUDGMENT if they do not tell the public and the delegates this in an effort to save America, lives and souls. They are modern day Christian Jonahs that God has given the opportunity to tell America the truth. They really do not want to be figuratively “swallowed by a whale” or no longer be used by God for not more directly and firmly warning America and the Republicans about what they know about John McCain.

If Hunter and/or Huckabee are not willing as Christian, Baptist leaders to take the risk of paying a political price for telling the truth about McCain and standing for Godly Christian values and principles when they know to do so, they risk losing their souls, having their consciences seared, and having the “Son of man being ashamed of them” when he returns. See Mark 8:34-38. If Hunter and Huckabee do not act NOW decisively against McCain, they also risk losing the respect of their fellow countrymen and Christians for not standing in the breech when it was needed most.

The article, "Influence peddling claims dog McCain, describes McCain’s criminal corruption while on the Senate Commerce Committee for which McCain should have been removed from office and prosecuted. During the time this was going on, McCain was receiving large contributions to his Reform Institute from socialists George Soros and Teresa Kerry:

“In 1999, McCain refused to recuse himself when the Commerce Committee gave legislative oversight approval for mergers then before the Federal Communications Commission involving two communications companies that were Davis, Manafort & Freeman lobbying clients – COMSTAT Corp., a government-owned satellite company, and SBC communications, a Baby Bell phone company.

“But in between the two separate $100,000 contributions Cablevision made to the Reform Institute, McCain, then chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, wrote a letter to the Federal Communications Commission supporting Cablevision's desire to continue packaging customer TV programming in a manner more profitable to Cablevision."

“In 2005, after the Associated Press exposed McCain's apparent conflict of interest in the Cablevision case, McCain resigned as Reform Institute chair.“

But another offense for which McCain should be in prison is the fact McCain helped criminally loot the S&Ls of 100’s of billions of dollars for himself and 4 other U.S. Senators (Charles Keating 5) as well as his buddy, former US Senator Jake Garn, who knowingly legalized the looting with the Garn-St.Germain law. McCain should be in prison today for this and the public should be reminded of it. McCain in effect has solicited bribes to wield his influence in these scandals.

Former CIA officer Phillip Giraldi has linked John McCain with corrupt senior U.S. officials who criminally helped proliferate U.S. nuclear technology to Islamic nations according to this February 4, 2008 article,"Why Sibel Edmonds Must be heard:"

“Many of the officials involved are apparently the same neoconservatives who cooked the books to enable the rush to war against Iraq and who are continuing to urge more wars in the Middle East, most notably against Iran and Syria. Several of them are close allies of leading Republican presidential candidate JOHN MCCAIN.”

On February 18, 2008, The Dallas Morning News publicly called for a formal and full blown investigation of the matter:

"…Congress and the Justice Department should have no higher priority. Nothing deserves more attention than the possibility of ongoing national- security failures and the proliferation of nuclear weapons with the connivance of corrupt senior government officials.”

The above story constitutes another serious corruption and criminality allegation, this time an allegation of treason, involving McCain and affecting national security that deserves a full investigation BEFORE McCain is nominated or is elected.

McCain and former Senator Jake Garn also directly conspired against American MIA/POWs (in North Korean, China, Russia, Laos, North Vietnam) and their families from 1988 to 1992. McCain intentionally used his position as a Senator on the Senate Armed Services Committee to stymie investigations and to block information going to the public about known POWs that were intentionally but falsely listed as MIAs to hide what was known about them and to avoid accountability for not trying to recover them.

I have first hand witnesses who know of McCain (via WSJ author and world renowned POW/MIA expert Bill Paul) conspiring with Senator Garn to conceal information about known POWs while McCain was at DIA, then in the House and then as Senator on the Senate Armed Services Committee (while still covering up for DIA as a Senator according to Bill Paul), and the Senate Subcommittee POW Hearings by Kerry and McCain in 1992. During testimony before the Kerry subcommittee about American POWs left behind in North Korea, McCain walked out of the hearings but not before demeaning, castigating the expert witnesses.

NSA officers responsible for handling intercepted and other intelligence traffic in SE Asia (Laos, North Vietnam, Cambodia, etc) during the time of McCain's captivity are in the process of preparing to reveal what they know of McCain’s confessions and his radio broadcasts from North Viet Nam condemning the US and his collaborating with the North Vietnamese and Cubans to the detriment of fellow POW members. Another intelligence officer, Jack McLamb, has recently already made similar assertions known publicly. You can now read a declassified transcript of McCain’s Confession Speech to the North Vietnamese Broadcast by Radio & Praising them for His Treatment.

A former NSA officer says "he does not know of ANY people in US intelligence that he knows (he knows many) that do not believe McCain collaborated with the North Vietnamese and was not a TRAITOR to the U.S." This is a quote that I was asked to write down. ..
