is a citizen of the United States, is declared to be a citizen of the United States

A Natural Born Citizen is a Citizen. A Citizen is NOT necessarily a Natural Born Citizen. The two are NOT the same. I am certainly not saying McCain isn't a citizen! Not even remotely. He isn't a Natural Born Citizen and that comes from Minor v. Happersett and the legal defination it created. It is why McCain didn't challenge Obama on it. He could not have stood up to the light of minor even with his shiney new Senate Resolution.

Senators Introduce Resolution To Make Clear Senate’s Position On Candidate’s Status
Senators: McCain Is A ‘Natural Born Citizen’

Excerpt:

WASHINGTON (Thursday, April 10, 2008) Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) today introduced a resolution expressing the sense of the U.S. Senate that presidential candidate and current Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) is a ‚Äònatural born Citizen,’ as specified in the Constitution and eligible to run for President.

In February, The New York Times [a well-known liberal propaganda rag] published a report calling into question the legality of McCain’s presidential run. McCain was born to American citizens stationed on an American Naval base in the Panama Canal Zone. He has since served in the U.S. Navy, and, since 1983, has served in the U.S. Congress.

“Because he was born to American citizens, there is no doubt in my mind that Senator McCain is a natural born citizen,” said Leahy. “I expect that this will be a unanimous resolution of the Senate.”

Mrs. MCCASKILL (for herself and Mr. LEAHY, Mr. OBAMA, Mr. COBURN, Mrs. CLINTON, and Mr. WEBB) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on

_______________

RESOLUTION

Recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen.
