Towards the end of his speech late Monday afternoon at the Peoria Civic Center Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was interrupted by a protester carrying a Donald Trump sign who yelled multiple times "Go back to Canada" at the leading opposition candidate to Trump..
Cruz told the man that he appreciated his being there and his freedom of speech and told the birther protester "You see sir one difference between this and a Donald Trump rally is I am not asking anyone to punch you in the face."
Security escorted the man from the event.
The Trump protesters outburst drew massive boos from the more than 2,000 people who came to the event the 3rd of 5 Cruz is doing in Illinois ahead of Tuesday's primary .
Trump's comments on the campaign trail questioning Cruz's eligibility to be President has prompted birthers across the country to launch legal challenges to Cruz's ability to appear on various state ballots. Twice prominent birther Lawerence Joyce of Poplar Grove, IL tried to get Cruz kicked off the ballot in Illinois first having his challenge totally rejected by the Illinois State Board of Elections, and then having a lawsuit he brought in Cook county court seeking to have that determination reversed was tossed out.

It all seems a little too convenient.
There is something really creepy about that, really creepy.
I like Ted. Do not always agree with what he says.
Man enough to say that. Seems you like others just call people ‘kitty kats’.
Take care........pilgrim
I’m curious what she’s flicking at him with her hand.
You're right, it doesn't where Cruz is concerned. Blaming a fellow Republican for leftest mob rule is about the most classless act I can think of. And he is not held accountable by any Cruz bot in this forum.
Trump’s Mother was naturalized several years before Donald was born. Nice try.
No, Trump can’t claim Scottish citizenship. His mother was born in Scotland, but became a naturalized citizen 4 years before Donald was born. You truly are ignorant, aren’t you? Trump; was at least born on American soil, something Cruz can never claim.
Why does Cruz ever increasingly remind me of the oily Greg Marmalard from “ Animal House”?
If that birther had whacked a bunch of people with his sign and yelled profanities at them, Mr Greg might have gotten real world practice in breaking up a food fight with soothing words
There is something profoundly unsettling about that video clip.
For Trumpanzees everything Trump does is brilliant or masterful, even making a snarky remark to a probably planted protester.
“I’m curious what she’s flicking at him with her hand.”
My brother said the same thing? Is that Sign Language?
Yeah, it's possible. It's also possible it was planned. Doesn't it just seem a bit too convenient ? One heckler ? Just one ? Sound byte achieved, back to the speech ?
I guess I'm just cynical.
Oh, I believe that too. He’s Me2Ted. It’s just so obvious - all this time, not one protester, and then after the fiasco in Chicago - well, lo and behold - Lying Ted gets a protester. He’s so obvious.
I have a difference of opinion after speaking with many Freepers and reading many pieces on this subject.
Saying Ted Cruz is a natural born citizen by the authority of a legislative act of Congress, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952, is the same as saying Bruce Jenner/Caitlyn Jenner is a natural born woman by the authority of a legislative act of Congress or an adopted child is the natural born child of an adoptive mother by a legislative act of Congress.
That's nothing. Obama renounced his US citizenship so he could get aid for foreign students.
I have a real problem with considering anyone born in a foreign country to two non-citizen parents, albeit one possibly a dual citizen could possibly be called natural born. In fact, such a person is NOT a citizen of the United States unless he has been naturalized (where is the the paperwork showing this?) As things stand, I cannot accept Ted Cruz as even a citizen of this country. In any case, claiming he is natural born is the technique of the big lie: If you tell a lie over and over, eventually people will start to believe it. My heart breaks for what has happened to this beautiful country, this is just one more lie piled on top of so many lies.
And so the door is opened wide to God knows what ruling over us in the future. And, sadly, all of you “constitutionalists” who believe yourselves so superior to the rest of us are just too deceived to see it.
