To those who think McCain was eligible to be president:
McCain was born in a foreign country in a hospital owned by the railroad in a city NOT under U.S. jurisdiction. He CAN NOT be a natural born citizen. If you can’t be convinced of that from his own birth certificates and that he was even born in an area of the canal zone that was EXCLUDED from the treaty that gave the U.S. ANY jurisdiction in the rest of the zone (not that any of the canal zone was U.S. territory, but people just don’t seem to accept that FACT), then I guess you just can’t deal with reality.
From the Panama Canal Treaty of 1903:
“with the proviso that the cities of Panama and Colon and the harbors adjacent to said cities, which are included within the boundaries of the zone above described, shall not be included within this grant”.

It may or may not, depending on what the Supremes eventually get around to ruling.
The Naturalization Act of 1790 explicitly considers off shore birth to American citizens on government business qualifies. This law was replaced in 1795.
The 1975 law is mute as to 'natural born citizen'...
