"Cagan received her undergraduate Bachelor of General Studies degree from the University of Iowa in 1975. She went on to earn her MA in journalism from the University of Iowa in 1977. While an undergraduate at the university, she was elected head of the U.I. Student Senate, not as a Republican or Democrat, but as the representative of the "Better Days party"
She appears to be from the Virginia or Maryland areas. Ancestry.com cites her public records for "Montgomery County, Maryland" and "Howard County, Maryland." Could she have been born in a city in one of those areas? Or perhaps those are just voting registrations. "Norfolk City, Virginia," is also cited (simply given as "Norfolk" in other databases that list her various previous addresses). Records should give her specific day of birth, but I didn't take them up on the free 14-day trial.
I'll assume the HIV positive category was a baseless and quite henious addition to make. If I'm wrong, please source it. And a note to other potential wasters posting nonsense here: Why? The true facts are far more damaging to the image of the United States government than are your stupid remarks, which leave her looking smarter than you. HaudCivitas 21:37, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
If you read the article at footnote 2 you will see that the "iron cross" is in fact the "Commander's Cross Order of Merit" awarded by the Hungarians to her at that event. That probably should be noted in the body of the article. A Brooks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.8.246.79 ( talk) 05:56, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
I almost tagged this a {{ db-attack}} - allthough it is not as clear as most attackpages, it's very much written as an attack. However, the attack is sourced. It' vastly POV though. Greswik 06:45, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Please discuss what you see as an attack? I chose my language carefully where I needed to conject together information from sources. I stuck to basics - i.e. why she has hit the frontpages and her employment track record. There's no opinion presented in the information given, only what details are available on this political figure via the internet. HaudCivitas 08:18, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
I agree. Simply by stating an alleged quote doesn't make this an attack article - since that's what the first comment was all about, no? Beetlecat 14:50, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
Although I support this, or a category like it, existing I don't think her statements on Iran make it clear she fits. It needs to be clear she encourages fear or hatred or discrimination against Muslims, or studies the issue, to make her relevant.-- T. Anthony 03:32, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Can somebody please explain to me what Cagan's alleged quote about Iran has to do with a photograph of her receiving an award from the Hungarian Ambassador to the United States? As written this paragraph makes no sense. GabrielF ( talk) 03:02, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
