Summary[edit]

Description

This is apparently an image of the original long-form "vault copy" birth certificate of U.S. Senator John McCain, obtained from the Michael E. Moritz College of Law, Ohio State University. The birth certificate was issued by the Panama Canal Health Department, and states that the attending physician was R.F. Annis; the birth occurred at 6:25 PM on August 29, 1936 in Colon Hospital, City of Colon, Republic of Panama. This Certificate of Birth was introduced in a 2008 court case: Fred Hollander vs. McCain and RNC, New Hampshire District Court.

For further information that may cast doubt on the authenticity of this alleged birth certificate, see this 2008 newspaper article in the Washington Post. At McCain's official senate web site, there is this: "'Where and when were you born?' 'I was born August 29, 1936 in Colon, Panama Canal Zone CoCo Solo Submarine Base'."
