I'm not picking a fight. I admire McCain for his duty and sacrifice for our country (although I despise him for his RINO voting record). I obviously don't understand the issue about his birth location as a local might.

However, I think the contention seems to be about McCain's UNIQUE circumstances in terms of YEAR and EXACT LOCATION of his birth.

Again, from Why Senator John Mccain Cannot Be President -- Eleven Months and a Hundred Yards Short of Citizenship -- by Gabriel J. Chin (FINAL)

McCain’s mother could have, as many Americans did, delivered in Colon Hospital in Colon, a facility built, owned, and located in a town owned by the Panama Railroad, a U.S. company, but under Panamanian sovereignty. He would have been a citizen at birth under R.S. § 1993, because born out of both the territory and jurisdiction of the United States.

Under a principle called the "plenary power doctrine," judicial challenges to immigration and citizenship policies are strictly limited. The reverse of strict scrutiny, plenary power review is deferential in theory, virtually non-existent in fact. To this day, no person denied immigration or citizenship based on race, political belief, sex and out-of-wedlock birth or sexual orientation has persuaded the Supreme Court that such discrimination is unconstitutional. Because exclusion of undesirables might well be "essential . . . . to the preservation of our civilization," the Court holds that " 'over no conceivable subject is the legislative power of Congress more complete than it is over' the admission of aliens" and that it is unobjectionable that "in the exercise of its broad power over immigration and naturalization, "Congress regularly makes rules that would be unacceptable if applied to citizens.

Other foreign-born children of U.S. citizens were made U.S. citizens, as Senator McCain would have been had his mother elected to deliver a hundred yards over the border in the Republic of Panama. Birth in the Canal Zone is justifiably treated differently from birth in other parts of the world, but those differences warrant more favorable treatment, not less, as Congress determined in the 1937 Act. Arguably, a well-functioning Congress would not have left those born in the Canal Zone in limbo for years after the problem became clear in 1932.

I have NO doubt that had McCain WON, the Left would be challenging him as many Conservatives are challenging Obama, based upon the arguments in this academic paper and in other investigations on this subject.

And if it were the left challenging McCain, the commie fifth column media whores would be pounding the issue with all their collective might. But because a communist bastard is in the White HOuse, these same fifth column enemies of We The People are fighting tooth and nail to deflect from any exposure to their commie bastard child. If revolution against this Marxist usurpation turns hot, the presstitutes need to be some of the first casualties, to prevent their further treason. Remind yourselves of how openly CNN chairman, Jon Klein, lied for Obama’s benefit, in an effort to shut Lou Dobbs up! Notice how the talking heads at all the networks are making a point to ridicule the demand for Obama to disclose his history to the public! It is more than inattention at this stage, it is outright propaganda from the quisling bastards.

Before hoosiermama jumps all over me, keep in mind I can’t be presisdent of the U.S. because I was born in the Canal Zone.

End of story.
