There was an older, smaller facility on the Coco Solo base prior to the one built in '42.
That's nice.
The only BC of his I can recall seeing shows his place of birth as Colón Panama.
Although curiosity says it's fake, McCain has never repudiated it.
curiosity? can you provide a "genuine" McCain BC?
Not that it much matters to me. Born on the base or on the economy, either way he wasn't born on US soil.
Suppose he had been born in Honduras? That would color any decisions or comments he made on Zelaya's attempt to seize power and install himself as el Presidenté-for-life in direct violation of the Honduran constitution. The same would apply if Panama's president tried to pull a fast one.
An American president must be free of any hint of divided loyalties, affiliations or affinities.
I suppose one could argue that 0bama fits that bill as he seems to have no loyalty or affinity for anything American, and has undivided affiliations with every enemy of America.
He is pure. Purely an enemy...
