“McCain narrowly escaped the problem by being born in the Panama Canal zone”

sigh... McCain was born in Panama in 1936, at a time when the State Department and the Hay-Bunau Treaty, which granted the U.S. access to the Panama Canal Zone, specifically stated that the Canal Zone was not sovereign U.S. territory.

Not saying I buy into the birth certificate thing..but still amazed at the ignorance of those dissing it with bad facts.

Every time I have said that I got the same results, people to dumb to look and read the treaty. If you actually go by the constitution Mccain would have been skating on very thin ice.
