TAX RETURNS OF THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES

Do you want to check out the 2007 and 2006 tax returns filed by Barack Obama and John McCain (and Cindy McCain)?

The “Tax History Project” over at TAX ANALYSTS provides copies of these returns, as well as the 2000 through 2007 returns of Hillary Clinton, George W and Dick Cheney. It also has prior year returns from the term of the first George Bush and other past Presidents.

You will note that McCain was a victim of the dreaded Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) for both 2006 and 2007 – but Obama was not because his income was too high.

The returns for McCain and Obama are also available on their respective campaign websites.
