I thought that was all hashed out on FR last year? I thought that the final word was that he WAS eligible? Has something turned up since then?

Nope. Jim's final word was that Cruz is eligible. It's kinda hard to be a birther and rally around Ted Cruz. Those intellectually honest birthers who believe neither man is eligible were basically told to take it elsewhere.

Personally, I believe Obama was born in Hawaii and has always been eligible. Qualified? That's another matter. At any rate, in the highly unlikely event SCOTUS ever takes up the issue of natural born citizenship and it's application to the office of the presidency, my bet says they'll apply the loosest possible definition of natural born to include anyone born anywhere to an American citizen.

Eligibility 101.

This is what I believe, I claim to know nothing. (disclaimer for the NSA)

Ted Cruz is eligible for the office of POTUS because; his father was a refugee from Cuba. Refugees from Cuba upon reaching the shores of the USA are automatically granted US citizenship.

His mother was a US citizen; therefor, Ted Cruz having two parents who were born in the USA, is a natural born citizen; according to the language of the constitution, and subject to the interpretation of the SCOTUS.

Barack Obama does not know where he was born, BTW none of us really do, we are told were we were born, and are given documentation, documentation which is in dispute regarding the POTUS. Obama claimed in his literary biography to have been born in Kenya, he later claimed he was born in Hawaii. Both cannot be true.

Obama, according to some sources, and, I am too lazy to provide the sources, has a birth document which has been altered. Lets us say, they contain anomalies.

The main stream media, which has almost no credibility, ignores facts which do not fit into their narrative of promoting Marxism

But like those insurance commercials with the lizard…

Everybody knows that.

But did you know...

That is what I recall....that Cruz was decreed 100% eligible. (I agree with that determination also. From all of what I have read here on FR and elsewhere, I see no other conclusion thankfully). Cruz would make a great president imho. I hope Sarah is our next President, but if she isn’t I hope Ted Cruz is!

‘Personally, I believe Obama was born in Hawaii’

Did anyone see Obama’s mother in HI during the 9 mos prior to Aug. 61? If so, who?
