After Obama, this should matter to everyone! You would have to have a cult-like devotion to a candidate to ignore the danger that this non-natural born president with his divided loyalties has placed this country! But rest assured if Cruz and Rubio go forward and you waste your vote on either of them, the powers that be in the Republican party will not go out on a limb as Nancy Pelosi did to place Obama on the ballot. They will simply strip Cruz and Rubio of their delegates and give them to Bush come convention time.
Mcconnel had the chance to address this and could have said Cruz is a citizen so it is a non-issueÂ, instead he chose to say,
“I just don’t think the Senate ought to get into the middle of this, These guys will all slug it out in Iowa and New Hampshire. We’ll have a nominee hopefully by sometime in the spring.”
He certainly didn’t have Teds back. Will there be lawsuits filed by the dem nominee? Maybe

Very plausible indeed. If the suits fail to gain traction, Plan B is to strip the delegates and give them to the RINO de jure...Yet another reason to vote for Trump..
It is astonishing and dismaying to witness the gloating and high fiving by many on this forum at the near complete and utter disregard for a key constitutional provision that was intended to protect the office of President from foreign influenced disloyalty and treason. The Congress and much of this nation, by ignoring the strictures of Article II, Section 1 clause 5, have undoubtedly given us the demagogic, tyrannical, treasonous and marxist usurper Obama. We are risking repeating his like again in the future, with possibly worse results.
I believe that the harm that a creature like Obama can do to the constitutional republic is infinitely greater than the good that an otherwise patriot like Cruz can do FOR it. It is time to enforce the rule of constitutional law, rather than the cult of personality.
This matter has already been decided in 1971 by SCOTUS in the Rogers vs Bellei case. Bellei was stripped of his US citizenship by failure to comply with the statutory requirements of his naturalization. Bellei’s birth circumstances were identical to Cruz’s. No natural born citizen could be deprived of his citizenship in such a manner.
If Cruz’s mother did not file a Counsular Report of Birth Abroad for her son, and none is on file, than he is not even a US citizen. The opposition is sure to begin digging into this matter.
His dissembling on this matter is extremely disturbing. He isn’t by any stretch of the imagination an Article II eligible POTUS.
Well said!
‘After Obama, this should matter to everyone! ....’ -
not only the Repub not lifting a finger to help, but also the democRATS seeking blood in removing Rubio or Cruz!
Think hard before you ignore the real risk of a Cruz or Rubio nominee!
Voting Cruz or Rubio is a guarantee of a democRATS win!
