Maybe if we could put Roger and Rafael in close proximity they would create a sort of matter/antimatter event and just poof into a puff of smoke.

Trump can be a British citizen because of his mother.

She became a US citizen 4 years before he was born.

There is simply no way to make a Cubanadian into a natural born citizen.

Doesn't matter. he can still become a British citizen. People who have Irish grandparents can become Irish citizens. That's probably true of other countries.

Probably? You don't even check before you post? It doesn't look likely based on my review of the UK Naturalization Statutes.

Section 3(2) Registration The child can be registered as a British citizen if:
a parent is a British citizen by descent at the time of the child's birth; and
the child has a grandparent who was a British citizen otherwise than by descent when the parent was born. (this effectively limits this kind of registration to the second generation born overseas); and

the British parent has lived in the United Kingdom or a British Overseas Territory for a period of 3 years in which absences do not exceed 270 days, (this does not apply if the child has no other nationality at birth); and
application is made while he is a minor (under no circumstances can this be extended). [See Clause 43, Borders Citizenship and Nationality Act 2009, effective from 13 January 2010. Prior to this date, the age limit was 12 months, extendable to 6 years in some cases.]
The child will, if registered, become a British citizen by descent.

Section 3(5) Registration A child under 18 can be registered as a British citizen if:
a parent is a British citizen by descent at the time of the child's birth; and
the child, plus both parents (or one parent, if the parents are separated), has lived in the United Kingdom for at least 3 years immediately preceding the application.
if aged 10 or over, child is of "good character".

The child will, if registered, become a British citizen otherwise than by descent. Effectively, the child must move to the U.K. by age 15 for this to be possible. Otherwise it will need to qualify for naturalisation as an adult. The UK Ancestry visa allows Commonwealth citizens with a grandparent born in the UK, Channel Islands or Isle of Man to live and work in the UK without restriction for an initial five-year period. This visa is mainly used by South Africans, Australians, New Zealanders and Canadians, who have historically possessed close ancestral ties to the UK.

Stone is right...Cruz proved that when during his interview with Hannity last night. Anytime someone questions his delusions he pops off.

Just in balance, Trump has given testy interviews and responses, so should we conclude that he also lacks the temperament to be President? BS articles do nothing to promote anyone’s candidate.

Will anybody give a WAG about what position this ding-dong will be given in the administration however remote the possibility is donnie might win? I guess they could put him on a leash at the White Hut guard house.

You forgot the s/ tag but it is an example of why this core values issue gets buried by the media or by trumpeters.

FRC PRAISES CRUZ DE-REG PLANS TAKING GOVERNMENT OUT OF RELIGION
America’s Christian bakers and florists and wedding planners will be safe under a Ted Cruz presidency. “I am absolutely convinced in my discussions with the senator that religious liberty will be a lot better off in America with a Cruz administration,” Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council and Chair of Cruz’s Religious Liberty Advisory Council emphsized when endorsing Cruz.These are the policies that he is going to pursue,” Perkins announced. “He is absolutely committed to the issue of religious liberty

The council was calling on Cruz to direct a review of the IRS’ treatment of religious organizations and to direct federal agencies to respect the free exercise of religion. Cruz said he will Defend and protect small business owners facing assault for refusing to violate their religious beliefs.

“ Rescind Executive Order 13672 – an order that requires certain federal contractors to not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity; - Direct all federal agencies to stop interpreting “sex” to include “sexual orientation” and/or “gender identity.” - Direct the Department of Health and Human Services to eliminate its requirement that all employers include coverage for all FDA-approved contraceptive methods and sterilization procedures;.

“As president, I have pledged on my first day in office to rescind every single one of President Obama’s unconstitutional executive actions, and to direct every federal agency to respect and protect the religious liberty of every American ,” This was the Cruz response to the claim of running for pastor ridicule made by the Trump campaign which does not seem to realize there is a war declared on religious values by the Godless democrats..

“The pressure really is on Cruz now. It’s a very, very narrow path going forward,” Stone said. “I really wonder if Ted Cruz demonstrated he had the temperament to be president last night with Sean Hannity. I don’t want my president blowing up like that. I don’t want the guy with his finger on the button snapping like that.”

Deceptive Donnie’s head crony strikes again. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

It wasn’t Ted that “blew up”.

It was Hannity! And he was disgraceful and disrespectful.

I’ve never seen him ask Donnie any tough questions or pull a tantrum with him like he did with Ted.

Not at all. It was a gotcha question, then another, and another, and then Hannity blew up:

Hannity started out by telling his audience that Cruz hopes to get to a second ballot so supporters of other candidates could have the opportunity to switch their votes.

“So you’re in a process of talking to delegates, and it seems to be very extensive. Could you explain to people what’s going on?”

“Sean, with all respect, that’s not what people are concerned about,” Cruz responded, noting that the American people care more about jobs, wages, and beating Hillary Clinton in the general election.

Hannity insisted it was a serious question, and that the “millions of people” he engages with through his Fox News show, on radio and social media want to know.

“I’m asking you more than a process question, it’s an integrity of the election question, and everybody is asking me this question,” he said.

“Sean, the only people asking this question are the hardcore Donald Trump supporters,” Cruz shot back.

“Why do you do this every single time” Hannity began. “You gotta stop! Every time I have you on the air, and I ask a legitimate question, you try to throw this in my face. I’m getting sick of it. I’ve had you on more than any other candidate on radio and TV. So if I ask you, senator, a legitimate question to explain to the audience, why don’t you just answer it?”

“Sean, can I answer your question without being interrupted?” Cruz calmly responded, before giving the host the full rundown of what’s happened in the election so far.

“In the last three weeks there have been five elections in five states: Utah, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Colorado and Wyoming. We’ve won all five. Over 1.3 million people voted in those five states. We won all five. All of this noise and complaining and whining has come from the Trump campaign because they don’t like the fact that they’ve lost five elections in a row, that Republicans are uniting behind our campaign,” he said. “So they’re screaming on Drudge and it’s getting echoed, this notion of voterless elections. It is nonsense. They are making it up.”

Cruz added that delegates are elected by the people, but Trump’s campaign doesn’t know how to organize. Cruz suggested the Republican presidential front-runner’s campaign passed out fliers asking supporters to vote for a list of delegates that included the Texas senator’s delegates and fired off an emergency email to Washington, D.C., supporters that were intended for supporters in Washington state days ahead of the state convention.

“I cannot help that the Donald Trump campaign is incapable of running a lemonade stand,” Cruz said. “My focus is on jobs, freedom and security, not this incessant whining from the other side. If you lose, don’t cry about it. Go back and learn how to win an election.”
