One more reason we should not have let The Usurper prevail in his campaign to suppress the Natural Born Citizen qualification.

The flood gates open...

Like Ted Cruz just fine, and in his defense, his father naturalized so it’s not the same situation as BHO Sr.

But his is a background of less than obvious attachment to the U.S., no matter how good he is on policy.

There are millions of people who do meet all the requirements. No need to make exceptions. Look what happened when we did.

I personally think a good many of our post 08 birthers are here to sow discord and nothing more.

They certainly drove me away from the issue and I was one of the first.

Cruz’ father naturalized in 2005. And he was born in CA. Two strikes against NBC status.

Interesting situation.

Both were born to American mother and non-citizen father.

The real difference is not that Cruz's father later natualized, it's that Cruz was born outside USA while Obama was born in country.

Personally, I'm of the belief that citizen at birth = natural born, but I respect (some of) those who believe otherwise.

I wish the Supremes would rule specifically on the issue so we could stop arguing about it.
