Juan McCain - Born in the USA?

No, he wasn't. He was born in Panama. No wonder he supports amnesty. He's looking out for his people, not Americans. Has La Raza endorsed him yet?

This was already discussed.........

John was borne on a U.S. Military base in Panama...to USCitizens...His dad being a Navy Officer...for all legal points he is a US citizen by birth...nice strawman attempt though...albeit it holds no proverbial water!

I think you missed the fact that he was doing an impression of Elrushbo and others.
 
He was born on US territory. I don't see how anyone could make a big deal out of this. There shouldn't be a birth (or age) requirement in any case.

I definitely vote we maintain the birth requirement. The age requirement isn't bad unless you want to place a maximum on it. Oops.......that would disqualify McCain too. :)

I don't really see the point of it. A person isn't a good leader just because they were born in the US. If someone under 35 is having a good chance of becoming president, they must be awfully mature anyway. Being an elitist and putting the requirements for the office very high has never in the past made the selection any better. It just prevent good people from running.

In Britian, for instance, anyone can run for office. Surprisingly, they don't have many 12 year olds/rapists/radical muslims who don't speak English in parliament. The requirement, IMHO, doesn't prevent such nightmare situations from happening, because they'd never happen anyway. And because it's mandatory and arbitrary, it just keeps decent people from running.

But for the birth argument, there is just no sensible argument for keeping it.

Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree. No biggee to me. I'm pretty disagreeable myself.
 
RP and a few others in the past also...........
