My program keeps skipping an if statement even though conditions are met

I have been working on a program to help me sort through regions that meat a requirement on the website NationStates. This is my first time using any external API or XML for that matter. I have met a problem where two certain if statements at lines 87 (if (tag == "Password") {) and 91 (} else if (tag == "Minuscule") {) are being skipped even if the conditions are met. I am using eclipse and I have run through the code in debug mode with breakpoints at those lines. Please help me!
