Wikipedia shows Grant Fisher is Canadian-born, meaning he is not native to America. Since LetsRun likes to call out every East African born American, it is only fair for them to call out Grant Fisher as not being born in America.

Calgary is about 300 miles from U.S.- Canadian border. Close enough for most posters here I guess.

He was born in North America, do you mean the United States?

Yup, so even Grant runs 12:28; we’ll still need LR to tell us who the fastest American born 5k runner is.

Grant Fisher is a natural-born citizen. He could become the president. Seems American enough for me.

I'm sure there might be some Canadian Grant Fischers, but Grant Fisher's mother is a US citizen. Thus, he is a natural-born US citizen regardless of the location where he is born. A person would be born American if either or both parents are US citizens even if the mom gave birth on the International Space Station, the moon, or Mars.

As someone else pointed out he is American if you’re only going by where someone is born. He was born in Canada so that makes him “American,” bright boy:

Fisher was born on Canadian soil in a Canadian hospital and sired by a Canadian father and had a Canadian birth certificate AT BIRTH. Grant Fisher is Canadian, not American by birth.

You make all sorts of intelligent comments here, bright boy. Mexico isn’t beside the “American border,” Mexico is part of North America. That makes someone born in Mexico and that lives in Mexico an American, right?

Man, you’re really dense. Even if he’s Canadian he’s still “American,” right?

I think you mean the United States since Canada is in America.

OMG! Frank Shorter was born in Germany. Can we count his medals in the Olympic medal count?
On the other hand, Salazar was born in Cuba so his transgressions are the fault of those damn commies.

Salazar isn't native American. Shorter is. So is Grant Fisher. The law is simple. Don't they teach civics anymore?

Salazar actually is a native of America. He was born in Cuba. Cuba is part of North America. That makes him American.

Neither Shorter or Fischer are native American. The only native Americans are the Indians.
And civics in school has been replaced by critical race theory.
