Reply #22: I had the option to become an Indonesian citizen up until I became an adult...

That was the way it was explained to me earlier. But yes, I was born an American, but I've had varying explanations of whether I could or couldn't run for president. I'm probably pretty close to what McCain is, but then again, Indonesia wasn't arguably a colony/territory of the U.S. like Panama (or at least part of Panama) was earlier when McCain was born there. And I'm sure whether I was entitled to run or not, that someone in the right wing would challenge me on it.

BTW, Land Shark, I think I'm closer to you now than when I was in San Diego when we last met. I'm up in Portland, Oregon now. Stranded albeit in the snow at the moment.
