New York Times Picks up on McCain's Eligibility Issue

Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina and one of Mr. McCain’s closest allies, said it would be incomprehensible to him if the son of a military member born in a military station could not run for president.

“He was posted there on orders from the United States government,” Mr. Graham said of Mr. McCain’s father. “If that becomes a problem, we need to tell every military family that your kid can’t be president if they take an overseas assignment.”

Lindsey, you can't have it both ways. You can't argue that the US Military bases are not US Soil for the purposes of US Court jurisdiction, and then turn around and argue that they are for the purposes of presidential eligibility.
