Is one of the reasons John "Amnesty" McCain is so pro-illegal is because he was born in Panama?
His parents were US Citizens and under the 14th Amendment he would have derrived citizenship (but there is a question as to whether he would be a "natural born citizen" as required by the Constitution).
Answer:
"Current US statutes define certain individuals born overseas as citizens by birth.[3] One side of the argument interprets the Constitution as meaning that a person either is born in the United States or is a naturalized citizen. Thus, to be a "natural born citizen," a person must be born in the United States; otherwise, they are citizens by law and are naturalized.[4] To others, the statute that grants citizenship to American children born overseas exempts them from the term "naturalized" and thus, as with the 1790 law, they are to be considered "natural born citizens" eligible for the Presidency.[5]"_wikipedia.com
And no I think that has nothing to do with it. I think he just knows that they cat deport 12 million people....
He is a natural born citizen, if not, what does the bit about having to have lived 14 years here (or whatever) be for?
However, it doesn't matter since he will never get the nomination after his Senate Bill.
Did you hear that he asked Kennedy to take his name off of the new version?
As another wrinkle, did you hear they are checking off the Judiciary Committee hearing on February 28 for comprehensive immigration even though there is no bill in writing yet?
