The New York Times today wonders whether the fact that John McCain was born in the Panama Canal zone renders him ineligible for the presidency.

When are we going to see pictures of McCain in his native Panamanian garb? Does this mean he is a practitioner of Santería or some other Caribbean/Latin American voodoo religion? Is his middle name Aureliano or Arcadio? or perhaps Chávez? Or even (shudder) Fidel?
