Of course, should Ted Cruz become the nominee, the matter will be litigated. No use doing so now since he hasn't been nominated.
But I'm going to guess, as a layman who admittedly doesn't know her butt from a hole in the ground, that based on past issues regarding eligibility, Ted Cruz will be declared eligible. As you know, the eligibility of John McCain and Barry Goldwater came up during their presidential runs. Nothing ever happened. And we all know how the courts ruled when the question was raised about the Kenyan in the White House now.
In fact, I'm going to guess that since courts either ruled favorably on or shied away from deciding against Obama’s eligibility, it's more likely that they would also rule in favor of Ted Cruz. And it won't be a decision based on the law. The courts acted as they did regarding Obama’s eligibility merely because they did not want to be accused of being racist. They may also feel the same pressure regarding Ted Cruz because he is of Hispanic/Latino descent. Not the ideal way to decide the issue — but I would be naive if I thought the courts always rule based on the law.
i know quite a few lawyers myself and we’ve discussed the matter and they agree, the Constitution makes it plain that ‘citizen’ and ‘natural born citizen’ are specifically different things. additionally, the used of the term coupled with the mentions from minor v happersett along with the federalist papers indicating the founders desire to avoid split allegiances and foreign kings assuming the office, show clearly their meaning and intent.
as for 0abama, there has yet to be a single court ruling on the dozens of cases against 0bama eligibility. none of them make it to discovery... as they’ve all been dismissed without any evidence being submitted. (if 0bama submitted that birth certificate even ONCE, he’d be up on felony forgery charges)
