Since most Constitutional scholars disagree with you, it hardly seems worth it to keep having this circular argument. You cannot prove your position beyond a reasonable doubt, and neither can I, because there is no legal definition of the term “natural born citizen”. And since no one has standing to challenge Cruz’s eligibility, that pretty well ends the discussion.

That's like saying this - Since most scientists say global warming is real you have to believe it.

...it hardly seems worth it to keep having this circular argument.

Where you see a circular argument I see linear progression.

And this same group will likely tell us Gay Marriage and Abortion ought to be legal too. I don't get my understanding from reading what "experts" tell me, especially when it doesn't jive with actual History.

Actually I can, but it requires a reasonable listener. I can also show a "legal definition" and a legal basis in natural law principles for it. (look at page 26)
