It's simply no help to Cruz, because, although he is covered by it, he's not covered by the "born in US" part.
We don't even have to get to the legal term of art, "natural born citizen." If Cruz is in the 14th amendment, he's naturalized.
You nailed it.
Quarter of Republicans think Cruz’s birthplace disqualifies him for president: poll

The ‘G’ OP has found a way to sabotage us. Cruz gets sympathy now, and after the primary, they have a contingency plan to pull the rug out from under him. In the meantime, Trump and Cruz supporters slug it out viciously. While Majority Leader Mc-Conman laughs.
25% is a big chunk of the voter pool.
That is chump-change compared to Phase Two.
After the primary, that would be a BIPARTIZAN majority.
I don’t think this is at all fair to Cruz, but until he challenges Professor Laurence Tribe to a debate, Trump and Cruz supporters are locked in a cage fight of the ‘G’ OP’s making.
McConnell: No, Senate won’t pass resolution affirming Cruz’s eligibility like it did for McCain

Why can Mc-Conman do this? Because he has a revered creep — Professor Laurence Tribe, undermining Cruz [regarding natural born status].
Tribe is a creep, Mc-Conman is a creep, and they flock together. The ‘G’ OP would rather lose than let Cruz OR Trump win. And those hypocrites will sabotage either of them at the first opportunity.
So, unless Cruz can turn this around, it’s ‘checkmate’. If he wins the nomination, he could lose the race over this one issue alone due to a hypocritical double-standard [in natural born status]. I’ll get into that double standard in the next post. It’s not good for Cruz, but to all Cruz supporters out there — please don’t kill the messenger.
