Thank you for your comments.
McCain has an unusual problem, though.
Having been born in the Republic of Panama (and not in the Canal Zone), he is also a Panamanian citizen. That is Panamanian law. And once a Panamanian, always a Panamanian. There is no renouncing Panamanian citizenship.
By the way, Panamanians are thrilled they may get a Panamanian as president of the United States.
I tell them that if he loses, he can come to Panama and run for Panamanian president in May (2009), which he can of course since he is a Panamanian citizen by Panamanian law.
“If this was a problem for McCain, I assure you that the MSM would had been over this a long time ago.”
I could be wrong, but I don’t think either side wants to open this can or worms. Both parties have kept their mouths sealed for obvious reasons.
Man, what a nutty, awful election this has been.
My best regards and thank you again.
At the age of 18, however, McCain did actively opt for U.S. citizenship. At that point, it makes no difference what Panamanian law might be.
McCain IS a "natural-born U.S. citizen".
McCain is considered an American born citizen under American law. It doesn’t make a dime’s worth of difference what the Panamanians may think about this issue.
