Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, who has been boosting Donald Trump for president, took to Twitter on Wednesday to declare that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is not a natural born citizen.
Ann Coulter @AnnCoulter
Same lawyers who said anchor babies are in the Constitution now tell us being born outside U.S to 1 American parent = natural born citizen.
Ann Coulter @AnnCoulter
NYT: Cruz was born outside the U.S. to 1 American parent: "Under the Constitution this makes him a 'natural born citizen.'†Absolutely false
Coulter joins Trump in questioning whether Cruz can legally be president.
“Republicans are going to have to ask themselves the question: ‘Do we want a candidate who could be tied up in court for two years?’ That’d be a big problem,†Trump told The Washington Post on Tuesday.

At least he wasn’t born in Kenya?
I am so sick of people saying this is a settled and they know the answer.
No Ann, YOU DO NOT KNOW. Listen to the oral argument before SCOTUS in the NGUYEN case where this is discussed. Justices don’t agree on the requirement.
she is a natural born idiot. go back to supporting Christie.
WHO’S GOT THE CRUZ PING LIST?!
Luckily, there is no such requirement for a Supreme Court Justice, so President Trump could appoint Ted to replace Buzzy or one of the other old Progressives.
Watch Trump retweet this and say the very respected constitutional scholar Ann Coulter.....
This election is so entertaining.
Anyway, the issue was settled here a long time ago, so don't even bother to go there:
CATO Institute: Yes, Ted Cruz Can be President
As I've stated elsewhere on this forum many times, I have infinitely more confidence in Mark Levin and the CATO Institute than I do in legions of internet sea lawyers and bloggers.
If Ted Cruz decides to run for the Presidency and he appears to be the strongest conservative running, I will support him to the hilt. He's one of the few conservatives in the Senate who actually has the balls to stand up for conservatism and against Obama and the GOP-e RINOs. This is a battle for the survival of America as a free nation. If we allow the democrats and the GOP-e statists to select our next opposition candidate for us, ie, Chris Christie or Jeb Bush, this nation is kaput.
We stand united or we fall. We cannot afford to destroy our best candidates or to split our conservative vote to the point that the likes of Christy or Bush gets the nod and someone like Hillary waltzes into the White House.
Supporting the "electable" Dole, McCain and Romney gave us Clinton and Obama. Supporting the crazy conservative gave us President Reagan.

So what? He is eligible and legally qualified to be the president.
That NBC requirement has been nullified some 3 dozen times in the last eight years alone.
Ann is arguing Ted’s mother was not an American citizen when he was born?
I hope the Dems to take this up and get it before a court so the matter could be settled.
Republicans will never do it.
Coulter is right. And she’s a far superior warrior of the Constitution than Cruz is
Lol, Coulter has lost her mind. As bad as any left wing moonbat.
somebody forgot to tell the transvestite she or he’s been irrelevant for a little while to real conservatives.
Let’s compare his birth certificate to Obama’s
Cruz would be wonderful on the court.
You’re right- no one has ‘standing’ to tie it up in court
Besides, I want Trump/Cruz then Cruz/Palin for 16 years of conservatism.
