Bizarre?? She’s 100% correct. The only bizarre ppl are the ones controrting the Constitution to somehow claim Cruz and Rubio are eligible.

Trump going after Rubio seems to indicate it’s going to be Trump in first, Rubio second, Cruz third.

does a narcissistic, manipulative, pathological liar personality disqualify you from the Presidency?

“When the Constitution was written in the 1780s, the purported attorney says all the framers knew what a natural born citizen was, using a definition provided in Swiss philosopher and legal expert Emerich de Vattel’s book on political philosophy The Law of Nations. In it, she says, a child’s status as a citizen is defined as being inherited from the father, and that it does not matter where the child is born.”

Vattels book, Law of Nations. was thee book seen aournd the halls at the constitutional convention.

It also explained the requirement to go to war if any nation violated natural law.

Why does this story sound so familiar... It is because it is written with exactly the same structure as a mainstream media article on Global warming.

The article says, “Rubio was born in Miami. That makes him a natural born U.S. citizen under the Constitution.” It would be nice if the author could specifically quote the exact passage in the Constitution where it says anchor babies born to foreign nationals within the borders of this country are defined as Natural Born U.S. citizens.

I look forward to this article being spammed all over the boards today. Thanks for the heads up.

Incomplete (and therefore Incorrect): “Rubio was born in Miami. That makes him a natural born U.S. citizen under the Constitution.” When will these media ever fact- check their stories (are there “editors” anymore? )

Cruz: “Two citizen parents and born on the soil.”

doesn’t get any more simple than that.

Wake up conservatives, One or Two Conservatives Views and a Slew of Liberal Views Doesn’t Make Trump a “Common Sense Conservative.”

If Trump is not just talking, but instead is successful as the one who brings about the restoration of the original meaning of Natural Born Citizen, then...Trump will be the hero that Ted Cruz could have been.

Same for Rubio, too. Either Rubio or Cruz could have been a national hero, instead of just another national ego.

As it is, Trump is a hero simply for being the ONLY one fighting for the Constitution against our worldly ways of seeking to redefine everything, even the fundamentals themselves, including our own fundamental definition of our national identity.

I am trying not to hate Cruz and Rubio, the same as I try not to hate obama, for what they are doing and not doing, but it's very hard to not give in to it and let my emotions run my mouth.

I pray for them and for US that we all wake up and get back to real.

The Trump Train is coming off the rails.

I Like the Mandate.

Bring back the good ones

I’m gonna sue Ted Cruz

Bush Lied, people died.

Mexico is going to pay for it

Cruz is not eligible

Rubio is not eligible

Ben Carson is like a child molester

+++++++++

Trump is unstable. Hopefully the electorate will wake up before it’s too late.

And those who support someone who doesn’t understand the constitution will themselves not understand the constitution. When a supposed expert refers to an amendment as man made, they’ve exposed their ignorance. Trumpsters seem all too eager to yell, “The Constitution!”, yet support a guy who has shown no evidence he will abide by it. At the same time, they ridicule a man who has over and over again fought the conservative fight.

Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama should be proof enough of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by requiring someone who could only be a US citizen and nothing else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
One cannot be anything else and also be a natural born citizen.

Obama told us he was born a British Subject.

Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?

Finally!!!!

Now win South Carolina big time so everyone knows you don’t need to get then disqualified on eligibilty grounds to win.

And then sue both Cruz and Rubio on eligibility getting the courts to finally rule and define “natural born citizen”. Then as President put a requirement in to check eligibility before getting on any ballot for federal office.

I have honestly never understood why anyone thinks Rubio is eligible. Neither, as in NEITHER, of his parents were citizens at the time of his birth. He is an American citizen, of course, due to the current interpretation of birthright citizenship. This makes him, what we call in impolitic company, an anchor baby. That his parents were here with permission is of no moment here...the requirement is CITIZENSHIP, natural or naturalized, but citizenship it is. And “of the soil,” which he does have.

Not one bit different from the 9,398,798 or so anchor babies that we already have in this place.

In case you don’t think this is a big deal, just wait until one of them is in the White Hut and decides to use the monument act to put California off limits, and then hands it back to Mexico. lol
