28. What is getting lost here is that it DOES matter where you were born.
even though is doesn't effect your American citizenship. McCain was born in Panama of American parents. He would not be eligible for the presidency because he was not born in a state of the United States, but in a Panamanian hospital. Goldwater was born in the territory of Arizona, before it became a state and only because he lost, the question has not been settled.
