According to the State Department website: "A child born abroad to two U.S. citizen parents acquires U.S. citizenship at birth under section 301(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). One of the parents MUST have resided in the U.S. prior to the child's birth."

Like it or not, McCain is a natural born U.S. citizen and is eligible to be president. If you don't like the idea of a McCain presidency then I suggest you find other ways to thwart it.

How many times can you guys offer up the same red herring. No one is questioning the fact that McCain is a citizen. The problem is that he isn't a natural born citizen, he is a citizen by statute.

Congress even saw fit to remove the one statute that granted natural born status to children born to US parents abroad as a safeguard against mixed loyalties.

We can now see that it was a good idea as we currently have a US citizen who is a natural born Latin American named John McCain cheering on throngs of natural born Latin Americans who have invaded the US.
