Does John McCain Really hate Catholics?

Is John McCain native born enough to be President?
I would like to discuss if Senator John McCain is eligible to become President. Our Constitution states that “No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.”. This is a very interesting fact that the Senator seems to be forgetting. While I fully admit that the Senator served his adopted country, so has many other foreign born citizens.
I do not think that that we as a country should make the ultimate change, that is elect a non-native born citizen to our highest post, just because he is John McCain. I would argue that other notable citizens, like former Secretaries of State, Henry Kissinger or Madeleine Albright, both of which may have made excellent Presidents.
That is not to say that Senator McCain would not make a fine president, just that he should not allowed to be President. Only citizens born on American soil should be afforded the opportunity to be elected President.
Let me know you thoughts.
