I think she governs someplace much hotter than Texas.
She's trying to prop up Cruz to take out Trump, same as the media is doing.
So then when the media attacks Trump, they are doing that to prop up Trump to take out Cruz?
Nope, Trump needs to be taken out by all means possible. Cruz will never be a threat in November, hence taking him out can wait.
No mention of Hillary pointing out where Cruz was wrong, or what the actual facts are.
“”Whatever world he lives in is not the world I’ve lived in my whole life and the world that I’m going to govern as president,” Clinton said Sunday”..
OMG the Freudian slip is monumental. Hillary, you’re not running for President of The World. You only get to govern the executive branch of the United States, if you win the election. Other countries have their own leaders and can still do what they want. And we have these other elected leaders in Congress too. You aren’t even going to govern the United States if you get elected, except with the consent of Congress. This freak show thinks she is going to “govern” the “world”.
She will never govern anything.
Welp, I know that people, who have nothing to add to the discussion beyond throwing out Trump's "Canadian" meme, are NOT RARE.
I am serious. Name the last Canadian born candidate for president. Do you know why there aren’t any? It is because they are ineligible, like Cruz.
So using the same logic, when they attack Trump, they prop Trump up.
Or are you saying that they don't attack Trump?
Dear jospehm20
I believe Cruz IS eligible per the 1952 Nationality law in effect at the time of his birth.
The fact that Trump spouts this "ineligible" claim constantly.....calls out threats to sue Cruz if he doesn't "straighten up".... and then refuses to sue Cruz, just backs up my belief that Trump KNOWS his claims are bogus too, but he wants his "people" to continue to spread his meme for political gain
I repeat.....if the "Make America Great Again" Donald Trump KNOWS that Cruz is in this race ILLEGALLY......why hasn't he filed suit against him already? Trump's rich......so it's not about the money.
Do some web searches. It is not just Trump. Cruz was born a Canadian citizen and help that citizenship for 43 years. Cruz is simply not eligible and he knows it. This is going to become more of an issue the longer he stays in.
I don't have to do web searches.....I KNOW about the DUAL citizenship business....which has nothing to do with the US law of the land for the time Cruz was born unless you can show me where Cruz "gave up" his US birthright. Then we'd have something to talk about.
Most respectfully, it IS about Trump. He is the one who continually says Cruz is ILLEGAL to anyone that will listen. If Trump KNOWS this to be fact, why wouldn't he go to court to stop Cruz from hurting his (and our) chance to win the White House?
Again, using the words that Trump uses to get supporters....he's rich and isn't counting on campaign donors/favors to run his campaign. He could hire 50/100/200 of the country's top lawyers to push an expedited case against Cruz and it wouldn't hurt his campaign since he doesn't have a limited amount of money to run on.
On the opposite side, Cruz's money is finite....as would be his support if a serious question (law suit) about his eligibility was to proceed. This would be another win/win for Trump.
Talk is CHEAP......action is where you find out what's real and what is NOT. Trump's "big talk" and continued inaction shows me he's a charlatan.
I guess you think it is just coincidence that all 44 Presidents so far have been born in the USA? Why were the “birthers” trying so hard to prove Obama was not born int he US if it makes no difference? Cruz is not eligible and he knows it. Lots of people know it. I suspect that the numbers will increase as people get to know who Cruz is and learn about his Canadian issues. Using your reasoning, every GI fathered kid on the various continents is a NBC US citizen by virtue of their one US citizen parent. I don’t think that is what the founders had in mind with the NBC requirement.
Hitlerly meant to say that she is going to RULE. Everyone is going to re-education camp when she’s prez...or so she said at a State Department meeting.
You do realize you are making my point, correct?
You know nothing about the 1952 law which covers Obama AND Cruz's birth....but continue to spout Trump's meme. (Also, don't think I didn't notice how you refuse to respond to my question of WHY DOESN'T Trump take Cruz to court if he KNOWS Cruz is ineligible?)
1......Technically, your statement about 40 President's NBC is inaccurate. All Presidents before John Tyler were born in the British Colonies....NOT the United States of America (which didn't exist)
2.......1952 law states about children of 1 American parent/1 foreign parent: The US citizen parent must have been physically present (living) in the US 10 years, at least 5 of those years AFTER the age of 15.
The birther movement on Obama (as I understood it) "existed" under the premise that IF Obama was born in Kenya...his mother would NOT have fallen under the 1952 law of living in the US at least 5 years after the age of 14 before Obama's birth.
So, I'm not "reasoning" over Cruz.......I'm reading US LAW.
I'll ask you one more time.......why doesn't Trump back up his words with action and SUE TED CRUZ if Trump believes it is illegal for Cruz to run?
2.......1952 law states about children of 1 American parent/1 foreign parent: The US citizen parent must have been physically present (living) in the US 10 years, at least 5 of those years AFTER the age of 14 (not the 15 I mistyped)
“No, you’re missing the point. You said that when they attack Cruz, they prop up Cruz. So using the same logic, when they attack Trump, they prop Trump up.”
There’s not much they can do to prop up Trump, he’s already the clear frontrunner. They go after Trump to try to weaken him.
But yes, they are trying to elevate Cruz a bit, so as to help him on his quest to slay Trump.

I agree with the author. Cruz is not NBC. I will not be voting for the Canadian either now or in 2018 if he runs for the Senate again.
