Shame? I have put life and limb in defense of this nation on more than one occasion. The idea that my daughter is ineligible to hold the office of President because she was born abroad while I was serving this nation is nuts. If John McCain was eligible to run for President, then so is my daughter.

I agree with you. Where stands America's fighting men, there is America also. I regard the children of any American servicemen to be "natural born citizens". So Does Emerrich Vattel. You might find the following interesting.

Thank you for posting this! This is what I have read and how I see natural born by air or by sea for our servicemen. They should have greater respect given to their children then some foreign ass squatting in our territory! Now I’m just furious.....

Thanks for the reference. Of course, until we have a definitive ruling from the courts, we will just opine.
