Ted Cruz is the best thing Hillary has going for her. He draws support from eligible conservatives who don't have citizenship problems so they won't be able to win the nomination. Anyone who thinks the 9th circuit court would pass up a chance to hurt the Republicans who oppose the court's rulings is living in a fantasy world.

The Supreme Court would take the case on an expedited basis, and would very probably reverse.

Leftist judges doing what Leftists want. How did our judicial system get so completely corrupted?

One is NATURALLY a US citizen when one cannot possibly be anything else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Natural born citizen.

Dems would be salivating getting Cruz in court and standing won’t be much of a challenge especially for liberal judges. BTW, Obama appointed 260 plus judges to the federal bench.

Notice, it would be the most leftist court that would do this and the court that is reversed the most.
Should give the Trump cultists pause that this leftist court would agree with them, but it won’t.

Facts and issues that don’t benefit the Donald are ignored.

Having one of her best friends and donors running for the Republican nomination... supported by idiot sycophants everywhere is the best thing Hillary has going for her.

How anyone can support a pro-gay marriage, pro-socialized medicine liberal... who might build a wall unless he rises above principle while coming to this site and proclaiming to be conservative is beyond me.

I don’t know how likely that is, but if anyone
were to try shutting down the GOP, it would be ninth circuit.

The 9th Circuit is the joke of judicial circuits.

I’d like Cruz as president....

I’d like Cruz just as much as a supreme court judge..

Just think, he could actually still be serving on the court in 2060! He’d be a bit old, but still..it’s possible :-)
(especially given the advances coming in medicine)

It gives me pause when I consider that Winston Churchill also had an American mother and a foreign father (British) and was born on foreign soil. Could Churchill have been judged a NBC? And could he have run for the presidency?

Go Trump!
Go Cruz!
Go Rubio! (and NEVER come back!)

No one has standing to sue for such a case. Remember Obama?

“. . .would rule him ineligible because he is a naturalized citizen”

Does anyone know when Cruz went through the naturalization process? I wasn’t aware that he did.

And there is only one other kind of American citizen.

This line of attack needs to be dropped now that Trump says Cruz may be his VP pick.

So, when exactly did Ted Cruz become “naturalized”?

What nationality would he be if he were born on a Panamanian registered ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean?

I think the SC would settle the issue by saying born a citizen = natural born. But I could be wrong. It would not hurt to have the issue settled. They might simply reverse the 9th but state that it is entirely up to Congress to decide. There is certainly an argument to be made for that as well.

I believe Cruz is a natural born citizen because his citizenship was naturally conveyed by his mother to him at birth. He was a citizen at birth under the 1952 naturalization act. He did need to be naturalized.

The 9th circus court? The most overturned court in the nation, that 9th circus court?

The best thing Hillary has going for her is Trump, who is a friend to the Clintons.

Are the Clintons trustworthy?

This article is not “Telegraph”; it is a lunatic limey blog f*rt.

This is not going to get in from the 9th Circuit or any other.

Total horse puckey.

Ted Cruz is already on the ballot in almost every Presidential Primary state. It is too late for any Loony Lefty to challenge his eligibility.
