#11  ^^ Point of Order: the Constitution states the President must be "natural born". That doesn't mean born in the U.S. It has been interpreted as meaning a candidate must be a U.S. citizen through either birth in the U.S. or through citizenship of one or both parents. McCain - born overseas - acquired U.S. citizenship at birth through his parents and was considered "natural born".

#10   ^ To American citizen parents

That’s the piece I forgot! Thank you, Frank G.

about McCain was that the Constitution says that the President must be born in America.

Another thing I’d forgotten, Rambler. Thank goodness Rantburgers remember all, since I can’t.

#7  IIRC, the brouhaha about McCain was that the Constitution says that the President must be born in America. There was no question of his citizenship

#5   Only good news is that while the base is US, it is not sovereign territory so no german-bred anchor babies.

When did that happen? It used to be that American based were indeed American territory — remember the brouhaha about Senator John McCain being born on the one in Panama?

"Whew! Such a joy..."
"What name should I record for him?"
"I dunno... What's your name, Doctor?"
"Me? Uh... Hunter. Hunter Biden."
"Hunter Biden it is! Now, about his cee-gar..."
