The article notes Manchin's age, and his reported athletic ability, but doesn't explain how he avoided military service and Vietnam (the biggest war of his lifetime). The article also neglects to mention Manchin voting in favor of the Rubio-McCain-Graham amnesty bill for illegal immigrants in June 2013. So the article lacks historical context and also needs present updating. |

Untitled
What does the last line of the article mean? It reads:
- Much political speculation has surrounded Manchin's possible response should Robert C. Byrd die in office, but Manchin has consistantly refused comment on the subject.
- As Governor, Manchin would have the power to appoint a sentator to replace Byrd, should Byrd die in office. This applies to all senators, but I assume Byrd's age is why this comment was added. TOO 21:59, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)

West Virginia's First Catholic Governor
This is a notable fact since Roman Catholics only represent 8% of West Virginia's population. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.50.163.223 (talk) 14:06, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- Do you have a citation from a reliable source that supports these assertions? Frank | talk 15:17, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- I believe Wikipedia supports my assertions, based on demographics (8% are Catholics) and backtracking on each previous Governor's religion. I do trust Wikipedia. Here is a reliable source: http://thepublicsquare.blogspot.com/2005/03/west-virginia-gov-joe-manchin-joins.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.50.163.223 (talk) 04:34, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how Wikipedia can support your assertions; policy clearly speaks against Wikipedia using itself as a source. In addition, blogs - especially blatantly partisan ones - are generally not considered reliable sources. Having said all that, I'm not saying the information doesn't belong. I'm saying that it isn't automatically notable; if you can find citations that are from reliable sources to support both the assertion and the notion that it is actually notable, then it would be appropriate to put in.
