== Missing Items in Controversy Section? == |

Hi, is there a particular reason that despite for example a wikipedia page descriptively titled as a 2008 election controversy (https://en.wikipedia.org/Bill_Ayers_2008_presidential_election_controversy) is not listed in the "Controversies" section? It seems logical to include if it merits its own wiki page, I would think. ] (]) 08:47, 19 July 2024 (UTC) |

Change "Until 2024 this was also the most recent election in which any of the major presidential nominees had any military experience." to "Until 2024 this was also the most recent election in which any of the major presidential or vice-presidential nominees had any military experience." The reference for the current claim links to JD Vance's military experience. JD Vance is not a presidential nominee, he is a vice-presidential nominee. |

Hi, {{u|GigachadGigachad}}. Your {{diff||next|1248921781|recent edit}} adds a footnote that expects a citation named "Based on Takeaway", but not such citation is defined. Are you able to provide a citation so that this error can be corrected? -- ] (]) 14:45, 14 October 2024 (UTC) |

== Alan Keyes, "America's Independent Party," no Wiki article? == |
|

Hi, in the ] sub-section, why isn't the above titled America's Independent (political party) a hyperlink to a Misplaced Pages article? I found ], but several articles end up saying, 1) "Create Page," or 2) are disambiguation, or 3) are confused with the ol' "Independent Party" actual party, or 4) are not to be confused with Americans who vote (small i) independently, or lastly are 5) about those like Nader who align ].. Any ideas? -Peter aka ] (]) 03:20, 14 July 2019 (UTC) |

There is a part of the "age issue" section where it says" Senator Obama, who was the first Generation Xer to run for president on a major party ticket." |

However, Obama was born in 1961, and Misplaced Pages's own page on ] describes it encompassing people born roughly from 1965-1980. |

:Thanks for the eyes. What Misplaced Pages's article on Generation X says on the subject we can't use here, because ]. On the other hand, the supporting the sentence doesn't say that either. So the statement needs better sourcing, agreed. ] (]) 23:15, 4 November 2024 (UTC) |
