McCain was born on a US base. That is US territory. He is a US citizen.

Otherwise ALL military members that have a child born overseas on a US base, that child is not a natural born citizen. (My son, for example, born on a US base in the UK would not be a natural born citizen?)

McCain is an a$$ but his citizenship is without question.

Citizen, yes, natural born citizen, no.
Years ago the military used to advise military wives to return home to give birth if they wanted to preserve natural born status.
Only embassies are US soil, military bases are not, except those on US territory, Guam, etc.

And McCain was born in Panama, not on a military base in the Canal Zone which had not yet been made US Territory by Congress.
The reason the Senate decided to pass te resolution for McCain was because he was not a natural born citizen.
If he clearly was there would have been no reason to do that.
The Republicans went along with Obama not being a natural born citizen because they wanted to run ineligible candidates, too.
Cruz, Haley, Jindal and Rubio are not natural born citizens and were considered the future of the party.
There are probably more waiting in the wings that I’m unaware.

Citizenship? No. NBC is another matter, else they would not have pulled that Sense of the Senate Resolution cr@p. The senators all know exactly what an NBC is they just don't like it.
