Anyone see that ABCNews report on Obama's airplane emergency that happened a month ago?

Question

ABCNews chief investigator Brian Ross said today that the mishap was a lot more scary that originally thought.

What would happen if the plane would have crashed, killing the democratic presidential nominee? Would McCain automatically be elected president? Would there have to be a replacement dem. challenger?

Answer 1

The Democratic Party would nominate a candidate for the November election.  It would not be a guaranteed shoo in for McCain.

Answer 2

So many Questions... -So many Unknowns... Although I DO know that McCain would NOT "automatically" become President... -More likely the Election would just have to be Rescheduled, & all the past Democratic "runners up"- like H. Clinton, & B. Richardson, & C. Dodd- would ALL get another chance to win the Nomination, & run against McCain down the road...  Let's PRAY something like this DOESN'T happen- because we all think this Election Year has gone on long ENOUGH- as it IS!!!  :0

Answer 3

This really scared me when I saw it. I don't know what would have happened it this accident had happened.

Answer 4

After all the celebrating, Hillary Clinton would have stepped up to the plate if nominated by the Democrats at the convention. ♥ ∞

Answer 5

Yeah I saw the report. If for some bad event the plane did crash and Obama were to die, the democratic party would have to choose a candidate for the election. But, thankfully, the plane didn't crash.

Answer 6

It's been all over cable news channels. Wonder why the lie in the first place? Who knows what happens in a situation like that as far as if a candidate is killed.... I'm sure Hillary had something to do with it. LOL
