Do you really want the current Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution? The same court that found Obamacare to be legal and who manufactured a right to gay marriage out of whole cloth?
I don’t.
Here’s my question. Do you really want the 9th Circuit Court in California to decide? Do you want Paul Ryan or McConnell to say Cruz is not NBC and let that stand as it seems Nancy Pelosi did for Obama’s eligibility?
In the end, the final arbiter on this would be the USSC (or in the case of letting stand a lower court’s decision). And, yes, I realize what a bunch of quislings some of the justices are now, but that’s what we have.
Personally, I think in the end the court would rule it favorably for Cruz, even against its likely sympathy to the Democrat side, SOLELY because it would not want to preclude another ringer (this time openly foreign Muslim, illegal, pick one) like Obama.
It doesn't matter what you want. The SCOTUS does it twice a year in every decision it renders.
