This will be one of those moments when we look back in time at this "birther" movement and be at a complete loss to understand. There is no doubt that Obama was born in Hawaii, and that Hawaii was (and still is) in the United States.
McCain was not born in the United States.
McCain was born on a US military base in.... Panama. No matter how you freaking spin this, McCain was not born in the United States. Being born in the United States meaning being born in one of the fifty states, not a US military base, not a US embassy, not an "unorganized territory", and not on a fucking boat flying the US flag. No matter what, McCain was born in Panama. It's a foreign fucking country.
This does not mean McCain does not qualify to be President. McCain is a "Natural-born-citizen" which means he was a US Citizen at birth, and met the legal requirements for U.S. citizenship at birth.
McCain was born in Panama. Panama is not the United States.
