US citizenship edit

Latest comment: 14 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

When did Sanders surrender his US citizenship? He would have needed to have done this prior to 1982 to sit in the Australian federal parliament. This is worth mentioning. Robert Brockway (talk) 00:08, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I don't know, but I have a related issue with this sentence:

Sanders is only one of three Americans (along with King O'Malley and Bob Charles) to have been elected to the Australian parliament.

That says that O'Malley was an American. Well, he may have been. But officially, he was born in Canada as a British subject. -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 11:51, 24 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's been a while since I added that sentence but it is referenced, so they must have some justification for it. --Roisterer (talk) 11:02, 26 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Americans in Australian Parliaments edit

Being one of three along with King O'Malley and Bob Charles doesn't seem right as of 2015. What about Mike Nahan in WA and previously Kristina Keneally in NSW?

I queried its veracity back then, but it's certainly no longer true if it ever was, so I've removed it. -- Jack of Oz ^{[pleasantries]} 12:13, 9 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
