Not many Presidentials come out of Canada—except Chester Arthur.

This is really lame. Since many conservatives wanted to use the eligibility card with Obama they must use it with Cruz.

To not do so is logically inconsistent.

“Desperate, Dishonest Donald Trump...”

Conservative media has officially become a joke.

And watch these people STILL moan and whine when leftist outlets turn this on Cruz if he happened to win.

If you want to call that an attack. But even if that's what it was meant as they're still late to the game. Trump was questioning Cruz's eligibility back in March of 2015 and before: Link

Trump is the drunk in the bar. He doesn’t have basic knowledge of anything outside of manipulation of people to get what he wants. Thinking people would know that from him trashing Scalia and supporting affirmative action. And hundreds of other things. It is a cult. Nothing matters to his hardcore supporters. The progressives he would appoint to the bench make me cringe.
Time to send money to Cruz. Who by the way actually have raised almost $47 million from the little guys like me.

Trump has electrolytes. And plants need electrolytes.

Regarding blog-pimping, one of my rules: Completely discount any story that is based on the poster's own blog.

So, yeah, you're right.

I was shocked when Obama was able to run for President when there were questions about what "natural born citizen" means. It didn't seem possible that there wasn't a legal process in place to determine eligibility before someone can run for President.

But now, after years of fake pandering and whining from "conservatives", there's still no process. Trump is correct. Many judges in the US have gone insane, and the Constitution has no relevance to whatever their agenda is. The dems will play tough. If the issue isn't settled, you'll have the inauguration put on hold, or the VP inaugurated. We'd have to be very careful about who Cruz chose as a VP.

One thing I've noticed. Most often, Trump's out-there proclamations that cause a frenzy are absolutely 100% true. I wouldn't be one bit surprised if Trump has heard some whisperings of plans to tie up any Cruz nomination in the courts.

Are There John McCain Birthers, Too?
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2350092/posts

[There sure were. His father was stationed in Panama, serving the USA, and the rats even questioned McCain’s status.]

Trump is pointing out that the democrats would go ‘birther’ on Cruz. You bet they will no matter what reality is. And Cruz must show he is prepared to handle it.

[Cruz starting off with humor is a good idea BTW.]

A baby bonus was introduced in Canada following the Second World War. A family allowance scheme known as the “baby bonus” made regular monthly payments of $5 to $8 to all parents of children under 16.

Did Cruz’ family take this baby bonus? Were they eligible to take it? If they did, he has a problem. He said he did not know he had dual Canadian citizenship. That his mother said he had to apply for it.

I don’t know the answer here or the rules that apply.

“Many judges in the US have gone insane, and the Constitution has no relevance to whatever their agenda is.”

Right. There are many activist ‘justices’ [aka ‘just-us’] who will give Obama a pass and flip-flop their opinions to smack down a conservative.

We cannot trust the courts. The rats will attempt to coordinate with them and even ‘judge-shop’ to the best of their ability.

Trump is a salesman. He knows the art of the deal, and he knows he has to say what’s necessary to win. He was willing to say nice things about the Clintons, praise them, donated money to them, invite them to his third wedding, claim Hillary’d make a great president, and that Bill Clinton’s harassment of women did not matter. Now, he knows he must say what will help him win the nomination. What does he really think or believe? Whatever he needs to say; it’s situational.

The Media has just given up on doing anything resembling journalism.

They are just flat out lying and exaggerating now.

Cruz is an outanding Constitutional scholar who has pled cases before the Supreme Court, however, so it is difficult to imagine your fears coming true, but I can still imagine it happening.

The Democrats will challenge Trump and hound him too. For example, he was able to spare lots of money for the Clintons (over 100K alone for their crime foundation). Yet he stopped funding for medical aid for his nephew's infant to get even with him. Trump has been a part of the same hypocrisy that is the Clintons. He's said and done whatever the situation requires, allegedly just because it made good cynical business sense. Now, you'd have us believe that Trump is merely helping to vet Cruz. Right.
