This statement is a LIE AND A BUNCH OF CRAP!!!!
Panama Juan WAS BORN IN COLON HOSPITAL, COLON, REPUBLIC OF PANAMA. COLON WAS NEVER, EVER UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE U.S. Having been born in Colon, Republic of Panama Juan is a dual citizen as I am also.
I stopped reading at that point."
Perhaps you'd consider continue reading. The author was corrected on that point yesterday, by Beckwith, and accepted it:
"Beckwith Mar 13, 2012 03:21 PM
John McCain was NOT born in the Panama Canal Zone as stated in this article.John Sidney McCain III was born at the Colon Hospital, located at Avenida Melendez and 2nd Street, Manzanillo Island, City of Colon, Republic of Panama. The time of birth on the birth certificate issued by Panama Railroad Company (that owned the Colon Hospital) was 5:25 PM and the day and date of birth was Saturday, August 29, 1936"

Thank you. The impetus of SR511 was that his parents were both U.S. citizens. Your clarifications are much appreciated.

On what basis does beckwith say this? My understanding is that allegations that John McCain was born in Colon are FALSE, and that this is an internet meme which was spread by Liberals in an effort to undermine his legitimacy. There is a FALSE birth certificate floating around, which is purported to be John McCain's birth certificate, but it is purportedly a FAKE.
Did I say *A* false birth certificate? Apparently there are two of them.
On the other hand, we have a few bits of proof to show that McCain was NOT born in Colon, but rather that he was born on the Coco Solo Naval base. According to this article, John McCain has NOT RELEASED his birth certificate, but he HAS shown it to a reporter.

If some information is not correct, we ought to make efforts to find out what *IS* correct. If someone has any proof that McCain was NOT born on the Coco Solo Naval base, then they should show it.
