I agree. Hillary is a criminal. She is in horrible heath and knocked her brains out when she passed out according to that decadent husband of hers. She is finished. We need to go far right now and make the RINOs vote with us by holding their damned noses. Cruz is awesome . We need a court ruling soon that he is eligible under Article two.
Under what provision of the Constitution are the courts empowered to make that determination?
That is the job of the voters, the electors and Congress.
Cruz is eligible.
Just vote for him.
/ We need a court ruling soon that he is eligible under Article two.
“The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.
There you have it. The Court stops short of construing the 14th Amendment as to whether the woman in question was a US citizen. The Court made a certain, direct determination that Mrs. Minor was a US citizen before the adoption of the 14th Amendment and that she did not need the 14th Amendment to be a US citizen.
The Court then, having determined that she was a US citizen, avoided any construction of the 14th Amendment as to her citizenship status. Therefore, the holding in Minor is in no way superseded by Wong Kim Ark.
