A hot dog is more debatable. My position on a hot dog is that it's not a sandwich because the meat is generally nestled in a bun cradle, rather than sandwiched between two pieces of bread/bun. But I don't see how the nature of a hot dog is relevant to whether a hamburger is a sandwich or not.

I already answered this question last month while I was in CT.
History
The beginnings of the hamburger sandwich as we all know it today was really quite simple. One day in 1900, a gentleman hurriedly walked into Louis' Lunch and told proprietor Louis Lassen he was in a rush and wanted something he could eat on the run. In an instant, Louis placed his own blend of ground steak trimmings between two slices of toast and sent the gentleman on his way. And so, the most recognizable American sandwich was born.
Today, Louis' great grandson, Jeff Lassen, carries on the tradition. The hamburgers have changed little from their historic prototype and remain the specialty of the house. Burgers are made fresh daily; hand-rolled from a proprietary blend of five meat varieties and cooked to order in the original cast-iron grills dating back to 1898. The Lassen family hold firm on their desire not to offer any condiments. The Louis Lunch experience is about the taste and simplicity of a fresh burger grilled to perfection. Cheese, tomato, and onion are the only acceptable garnish.
More than just another eating place, Louis' Lunch has held a special place in the hearts of New Haveners for generations. It was threatened with demolition in the early 1970's to make room for a new high rise. Scores of devoted patrons from all over the world took up the cause for its preservation. Plans for the restaurant's safe relocation were finalized just hours before the deadline. The historic building was loaded onto a truck and made a thirty minute journey to its final resting place on Crown Street. In an effort to help with the reconstruction, friends and supporters sent thousands of bricks to rebuild its revered walls from every corner of the globe. Each one has its own unique story.
Louis' Lunch is steeped in history and tradition. Your dining experience will be much the same as it was generations ago.
hamburger (n.) 1610s, "native of Hamburg;" the meat product so called from 1884, hamburg steak, named for the German city of Hamburg, though no certain connection has ever been put forth, and there may not be one unless it be that Hamburg was a major port of departure for German immigrants to United States. Meaning "a sandwich consisting of a bun and a patty of grilled hamburger meat" attested by 1912. Shortened form burger attested from 1939; beefburger was attempted 1940, in an attempt to make the main ingredient more explicit, after the -burger had taken on a life of its own as a suffix (compare cheeseburger, first attested 1938)
Also, a hot dog is technically a sausage on a split roll. Unless you slice it in half and put it between two pieces of bread. Then it's a hot dog sandwich.

The top would be a grinder, the bottom a hoagie, and a sandwich everything on a hoagie just put onto sliced bread. Kaiser rolls also make a sandwich, while a long roll makes a hoagie or grinder.
The split roll thing has come up in here before. What about all the grinders that aren't cut all the way through?
Those terms largely originated in the 1950s as bastardizations of the sandwich and split roll sausage. Basically you have a hybrid in this case and it should be shunned accordingly.
More often than not if you you order a turkey, an Italian, a chicken parm grinder, etc., you will get it on a roll- not cut all the way through- like the pictures above.

Yeah and that's because some dickwad in the 50s was like I'm out of sandwich bread. I'll use this sausage roll.

A broadening of the definition of a sandwich doesn't make hamburgers less of a sandwich. You wouldn't say, "Well, grinders aren't cut all the way through, so this:
is no longer a sandwich." All this means is that hamburgers are a more traditional sandwich than grinders.

Just got this image captcha/spam verification thing when trying to buy tickets. It would not let me go through until I selected ALL the sandwiches (which include hamburgers). Points for Team Yes!

I loathe those things. What the hell is that thing in the top middle even supposed to be? I got boned by these when I was trying to score Prince tickets a few weeks ago.

Yea, some of them are easy like "find the images of dogs" and then every other image is of plants or cars or some junk. Here there are a few choices that cause a delay and me to think what I'm looking at.
I guess it's less infuriating than not being able to read the captcha text and having to try 3 different versions until it works.
It thinks a hamburger is a sandwich but not that falafel looking thing on the top left? And like Horn said... what is that top middle? It looks like someone made a flashlight out of a fat, fried shishito pepper. Can't trust anything that makes a flashlight out of a shishito.
