Yes but in her case, is she born on a US military base or out in town? Either way she's a US citizen but is she eligible to run for POTUS? McCain was born to a US military member in a US territory on a US base so he's covered. What happens when someone is born overseas to a US military member but they're born in a civilian facility which isn't "US soil" like a base would be? Is that treated differently as far as running for POTUS?
