Whatever. Don’t wanna rehash all that crap again.
The Canal was US territory at that time, and like children born to American servicemen in Germany, McCain was a citizen. Natural born.
Can’t believe that fact about McCain still carries weight.

The Canal Zone was. Colon wasn't.
The Panama Canal Zone was a 553 square mile territory inside of Panama, consisting of the Panama Canal and an area generally extending 5 miles (8.1 km) on each side of the centerline, but excluding Panama City and Colón, which otherwise would have fallen in part within the limits of the Canal Zone.
I can see why you don't want to rehash all that crap again. Your facts are incorrect.
