About the only thing I'll ever give McCain credit for is that he got something passed in DC that defined him as eligible before before he ran, and that because he was born on US-controlled soil.

What the Senate passed was a non-binding resolution. It didn't make him something he wasn't already.

That non-binding resolution did not make him a natural born citizen. It just suggested that he was because he had TWO citizen parents.
Interestingly, Obama never said he was a natural born citizen. Because he is not.

What I’m talking about is that with that resolution McCain settled the nbc issue to a point where it wouldn’t come up in the campaign. He brought it to a perceived reality that worked in his favor. Obama did that with the birth certificate that wasn’t contested. All Cruz has done is said “you can trust me”.
