According to his BC, he was born in Colon Hospital in Panama.

Was that a US military hospital? His father was active duty military, right? And his mother a US citizen. US bases in foreign countries are considered US territory. Even if the hospital was local, his father's posting to a US base seals the deal.

McCain was legally qualified to be President. In a practical sense he is not fit to be a dog catcher.

It was not a military hospital. It was built by Catholics a long time ago. Since no one seems to know what a “natural-born citizen” is, I guess it really doesn’t matter anyway. I’m still hoping Netanyahu will run. Then we would see who would have “standing” to say he couldn’t. I’d vote for him, though.
