At a campaign stop just days before the critical Indiana primary, Heidi Cruz, wife of Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz, said one of her husband's strengths in the campaign is that he "is an immigrant."
"Ted is an immigrant," Mrs. Cruz said, emphasizing the word "is." "He is Hispanic."
Ted Cruz, who was born in Canada but who is an American citizen by birth, has come under withering fire from rival Donald Trump over his Canadian birth. Trump has questioned whether Cruz is constitutionally eligible to be president. (Most legal experts believe there is no question that Cruz is, but the matter has not been litigated.) And Trump has mocked Cruz, whose given name is Rafael Edward Cruz and whose mother is American and whose father is Cuban, over the circumstances of his birth.
"Rafael! Straight outta the hills of Canada," Trump said at a rally in Connecticut last week. "Was a Canadian citizen until 14, 15 months ago. And then he ran for the Senate. You know, you're registered as a Canadian citizen. He says, 'Oh, I'd never do that.' He never knew he was a Canadian! I can't believe that."

¡Jebito! is more Hispanic than Ted. At least, he speaks Español well enough to be interviewed in the language by Jorge Ramos of Univision. Same for Little Marco. Different language for Cruz: In Inglés (with a Texas accent).
“...use those darn Italians as was customary in the beginning.”
I always use italics to indicate I’m quoting another Freeper when I’m on my desktop computer, but it’s a pain in the you-know-what to do HTML on my tablet.
She didn’t say Cruz is an immigrant, I heard the audio clearly.
She said he’s an idiot.
Listen to it carefully. I am not sure why the media is saying she said ‘Ted is an immigrant... he is Hispanic”
No, just to the audio, and in the context of her entire statement:
“Ted is an idiot... he is in panic”
“... but I told him there is nothing to panic over”, she said later to clarify. “He can be stubborn, he will stick it out... I mean, until the bitter end.”
I was thinking here is ANOTHER thing he has in common with Obama. Strange.
Not two, many. There shouldn't be any since that was supposed to be a photo of the document because they couldn't take it out of the book for a copy. Then the newly elected pothead Governor that promised to show us the original, finally said there wasn't one. Who to believe......
Cruz is emerging as a pox on the body politics. We have until July to come up with a cure.
Mexicans Tend to dislike Cubans.
Is she wearing an iron cross??
Have your post removed and restate it with the quotation marks. Otherwise, you’ll be getting it all day.
Heidi draws blood - Ted claims it's a shaving nick..... Carly comes out and calls Trump a potty-head.....Cruz claims he had nothing to do with Carly's statement....
Look in the right hand panel of the screen shot you provided. That is the “layers” panel. Two layers are present. Photoshop shows all layers in that panel.
Perhaps the person submitting the evidence should find his evidence.
Plus what is with that sheet of paper? I just got my birth certificate because motor vehicle now requires one for a CDL license in New York, and all I had was a photocopy and they demanded an original. So I went to the hospital I was born at and they sent me to the town which had it on record and they printed it out, stamped it folded it and put it in an envelope just like everyone else. But what is with this one of Barrys? What the hell is that? It looks like a page coming out of another page
There are numerous videos on Youtube that show the obvious edits, feel free to pick one you like.
Wow! An AMAZING number of lies in one statement! I guess Lying Heidi is the perfect helpmate for Lying Ted!
Here’s the truth about Cruz “winning” women, etc.:
The only point I am trying to make is that the screen shot posted IN THIS THREAD does not support the claim. Perhaps the one who posted that picture can do better if he means to support the context. Otherwise, he detracts from the claim.
Windflier, you are exactly right. I’ve made and posted a list before, probably not exhaustive. But I don’t believe in coincidences, and certainly not as extensive as Ted and Obama.
What are the odds that immediately after having a non-eligible foreigner served two terms as POTUS (Barry Soetoro Obama) we would then have SEVERAL candidates who are ineligible. Nikki Haley (who has been mentioned as the white knight candidate), Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio are ANCHOR BABIES. Cruz is a natural born Canadian with Canadian citizen parents.
So after one "Manchurian Candidate," we suddenly have several more.
What are the chances? The population of eligible Americans, ONE job, President, requiring that you be naturally born as the founders laid out.
The Founders inserted this provision seeking a way that would be MOST LIKELY to ensure that a president would have allegiance only to the United States, and while this was not 100% by any means, it was arguably the strongest test and language to hopefully achieve their purposes.
So---as prescient as the Founders were---and they have been proven so wise and correct so often---they had this RIGHT: no non-natural born citizen because THEY would be the least likely to have complete allegiance ONLY to the USA. The last 8 years have proven this to be true. If Cruz had made it in (which I don't believe he will) he meets these qualifications to be one whose allegiance would be weakest: foreign soil, to subjects of foreign governments. Cruz's getting TPA passed, and that setting up TPP, his proposals for doubling immigrants and adding 500,000 highly skilled immigrants, amnesty, North American Union, lies about vowing to repeal Obama care, no progress made on a wall even thought congress approved the funds years ago, and of course the CORKER BILL, which gave Iran $150bn plus the nuclear bomb.
We didn't dodge the Obama bullet, but it looks like we'll dodge the Cruz bullet. But we need to make sure it never happens again.
One more final thing: Cruz's unprecedented "voterless" elections and winning by "delegates" and not votes----I believe they are setting us up to apply this thinking to the ELECTORAL COLLEGE, so that Electors can be bribed or "ground gamed" into changing their votes. And Cruz's primary strategy is just a test for using this on the Electoral College, and remove all connection between elections and outcomes.
