Maybe no one cares about him?

Note to Newsweak, John McCain is not President, Barack Obama is. Once again the Leftist spin is total hysterically ignorant nonsense

[E. Pluribus Unum]

If McCain were President, there would be.

[BertWheeler]

The evidence for Obama’s birth in Hawaii is ANYTHING BUT OVERWHELMING! The author of the article has been given talking points to create a diversion. Ya see, we ain’t lookin’ for John McCain’s birth certificate because we be hatin’ black folk - or so the gist is supposed to be.

Pure nonsense. MSM journalists must think everyone else is an idiot or they’d realize that we could see through their bunk.

[Phantom Lord]

Is it not true that McCains birth on a US Military base is what makes him natural born and had his mother gone into labor and delivered while she was OFF base, he would not be natural born?

[NavySEAL F-16]

I was also born in a territory of the US in 1949, and am a natural born US citizen. My parents were both American citizens as were McCain’s.

I am not a fan of McCain, but this is ridiculous. Leave it to Newsweek to try and prop up Obama with printing a myth about McCain. Comparing apples to oranges.

[Rashputin]

Well, there were McCain “birthers” until Congressional hearings were held to determine whether or not he could prove he was a natural born citizen. Could be that's why no one is asking now that the proof has been before a Congressional committee that was hoping to rule him out of the running.

How about we have the same for the guy already illegally in office?

have a nice day

“Despite overwhelming evidence that the president was born in Hawaii.”

Despite overwhelming evidence...

They always say this, but never provide any details...

Is Newsweek still around?

The last time I saw a copy was at my dentist’s office and it was already a couple of years old when I saw it.

[Always Right]

Despite overwhelming evidence that the president was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born citizen...

Really, such as Obama refusing to release the actual birth certificate, instead of some legal certification which there is pretty good indication that it has been legally altered. $10 and Obama can turn that 42% into 20% and end most of the legal challenges. Really, what is on the actual birth certificate??????

[Always Right]

Surely Newsweek can provide us with the name of the doctor and which hospital Obama was born at!

[Phantom Lord]

Hey intrepid reporter. Next time you get to ask Obama a question, ask him what hospital he was born in.

And then after he answers, ask him why his autobiography lists a different hospital than the answer he just gave.

Obama himself has give two different hospitals as the one he was born in.

[Non-Sequitur]

There are Birthers who define natural-born citizen as one born on U.S. soil with two U.S. citizen parents. That would exclude McCain as well.

[allmendream]

“And, except for perhaps a small fringe, no one has questioned whether he (McCain) would have been constitutionally qualified to be president.”

No love lost between the birthers and I, but this is just ludicrous. “perhaps a small fringe” includes the entire U.S. Congress taking up the matter and declaring unequivocally that John McCain is a natural born citizen? An entire Congressional hearing over the matter was ‘perhaps a small fringe’?

No. The matter received perhaps MORE attention than it was due on the subject of McCain's eligibility, and not from some small fringe group, but by the U.S. Congress. The matter of 0zero’s eligibility has not received the same due diligence.

[FrankR]

There may be mccain't birthers...but as much of a RINO as he is, I'll bet he'll show you his birth certificate in a new york minute.

My son was born in Germany, in the Hahn AB Hospital, and is going through this right now trying to get a VISA to visit China. Luckily, I have all the paperwork and he shouldn't have any problem.

It's funny how commiebama can be president without a B.C., but my son can't even get a visa without his B.C. AND they want a copy of mine and his mother's b.c. too.

[DManA]

The democrats DID ask questions about this before the election. McCain quickly provided all the documentation that was asked for. The democrats dropped it so I presume he satisfied their question. I hope they do make a big deal about it. There is a nice contrast between McCain’s openness and Barry’s obsessive secrecy.

[Right Wing Assault]

David, you need to look up the term ‘moot point.’

I imagine you already know what it means, but then you wouldn’t have been able to write this stupid article instead of something that took some thought and effort.

[autumnraine]

John McCain was born to TWO American citizens, one of which was out of the country on OFFICIAL US BUSINESS.

How can the two even compare?
