Some people say he was born in Germany, some people say he was born in Alaska, hell some people even say he was born in Canada.

This seems like a answer that can only be answered by 2 maybe 3 guys depending on circumstances; Boler and Booner or Brown in the Tunda Tough Question..

They also have Kirilenko's wrong. Yahoo says he was born in Moscow when he was actually born in Siberia.

Carlos, even though he was born in Germany could run for President of the United States.

John McCain was born August 29, 1936 in Panama to military parents just like Boozer.

FWIW

Yeah, he wasn't. He was born in Izhevsk, the city, where we produce AK's-47.
