Okay, then you’ve really gone round the bend.
The Supreme Court does not do them. Nice try though.
Whatever.
Where? cite your source.
“He was absolutely eligible under the Naturalization Act of 1790.”
If he was naturalized by congress under any act at any time, he is not a natural born citizen. He’s a naturalized citizen...
He doesn’t have to go to Scotus. A federal court would be sufficient.
I see where the problem may lie. The 1790 statue says “citizens” which means father and mother. Cruz’s father was not a citizen. However his mother was. I can see where there is a case to be made.
He has no standing until after election. Same problem we had with O. The RNC does have standing and it behooves them to file for declarative judgment.
Joy, do you remember that Trumps sister was a colleague with identical record to Sam Alito when she spoke for his confirmation to the SCOTUS
His legal advisor no doubt sat across the holiday dining table
That's a very fine sounding thing to say, but san you suggest a VIABLE way he could accomplish such a thing? I am looking for a serious, studied, suggestion, not bar talk.
Exactly
“Even a U.S. base or U.S. Embassy is considered U.S. Soil in a foreign country.”
Only royalty and persons traveling with diplomatic passports are not under the local allegiance of a foreign sovereign in the foreign sovereign’s domain. Birth in an U.S. embassy is still birth under the allegiance of the hosting foreign sovereign. This is the law and can be found in the State Department manual.
“One thing for sure. The Democrats have announced they will go to court over this. I promise you the GOPe is probably help funding it.”
The Democrats have already filed the lawsuits against Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz.
“Cruz is going to get set up by a shopped Judge if he becomes the nominee. The Establishment will then replace him with Rubio or Jeb at that point.”
Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rick Santorum, and Bobby Jindal are not natural born citizens and are thusly not eligible for the office of the president or the Office of the Vice President. Each and everyone of them acquired their U.S. citizenship by the authority of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Act/s and their provisions for the acquisition of U.S. citizenship by naturalization at birth.
The law professor that Trump is relying on was Gore’s attorney in Bush V. Gore.
What Trump suggested. Go get a Declaratory Judgement from a Federal Judge.
He can’t do that now since a lawsuit has been filed. He waited too long. He’ll have to wait for the lawsuit to be resolved.
One thing he could do is request the courts to resolve the lawsuit on it’s merits and not use arguments of standing or technicalities to get it dismissed like Obama did.
It’s not just CRUZ. Suit has been filed against Rubio in Florida today
RNC Must take care of this contact them
It has been explained on FR many times that federal courts do not do advisory opinions, which is what some here are calling for.
I will contact the RNC or GOPe folks after H freezes over.
They’ve ignored my wishes for over forty years.
It’s just his opinion or their opinion or our opinion
It is only the opinion of the SCOTUS that has merit or power.
How would he do that? you do know this real life right? this isn’t a tv show where everything is wrapped up in an hour. My Dad died in Aug 2001, we are still dealing with the bureaucrats on his estate. Obama has been in office 7 years and the cases against him are still in the court system or have been thrown out. What makes your think it would move any faster for Cruz
I think it’s too late now that lawsuits have been filed.
