Why was McCain ineligiable? He was born to American parents (military) in a US Military hospital in an American military base in a US Territory. By definition that makes him a natural born citizen.

Supposedly he was not born in in a U.S. Military hospital. I think McCain’s case is shakier. I do think Obama is clearly ineligble even if he was born in Hawaii.

1. 14th Amnedment writer said natural born required two American citizen parents.
2. The father was a British citizens so Obama at Birth was a Brit citizen. The Framers were VERY concerned and against anyone becoming POTUS that had any issues like Obama’s. They were very worried specifically about any possibly British agents or loyalist or their offspring becoming POTUS. It was a very BIG issue to them. SCOTUS needs to consider this. The reason they are there is because of the Framers.

No. He was born in a civilian hospital in Colón PANAMA, not on the base, nor in the Canal Zone.

At least that’s what his BC says.
