The NY Times has a silly story up questioning whether John McCain is constitutionally inelgible to be president because he was born in the Panama Canal Zone, and thus may not qualify as a "natural born citizen." This is clearly a non issue for his campign. Even if there is a legal case to be made against him, if you're the Democrats, do you really want to be making the argument that McCain cannot run for president because he was born at an overseas military base while his father was serving our country?
