how will the dems accomplish that

If Cruz were to be the nominee, find a judge who would push their agenda.

why should the dems raise this when Trump and the 'pubs are doing it for them

We're being pre-emptive with an issue they would bring up if he were to be the nominee. Establishing whether or not Cruz is eligible NOW takes it off the table. A better question would be why doesn't Cruz want the question fully vetted now. Not just so he's convinced, but so, once and for all, the issue is settled.

Why would Cruz WANT the nomination if it isn't established 100% that he's eligible.

Me? I don't think it's a real fine precedent to have a foreign born president.

If Cruz is the nominee Trump and the Republicans will have been pushing this agenda for going on a year. If it didn't stop Cruz from getting the nomination then it won't help the Democrats in the general and they know it.

Bull. Trump is raising this in an attempt to derail the campaign of his closest rival. It's not going to work.

Cruz has released his mother's birth certificate. It is off the table, or should be.

Why would Cruz WANT the nomination if it isn't established 100% that he's eligible.

What would it take for you to consider it 100% settled? Cruz has produced his mother's birth certificate. There is the law that was in effect when he was born. All that adds up to him being a natural-born citizen. What more do you want?

Me? I don't think it's a real fine precedent to have a foreign born president.

We lived with them up until Martin van Buren and somehow the Republic survived.
