Walter L. Wagner asked a judge to declare that Cruz is not a natural born citizen in the suit filed in Salt Lake City on Friday. Wagner is representing himself and says he is a voter with an interest in determining whether Cruz is a legal presidential candidate.

No hearings have been scheduled.

Cruz was born to an American mother and Cuban father while they lived in Calgary....

Will the courts blow off all of these ‘suits due to lack of standing, as they did when they were protecting Barry Soetero ?

Good. Let him sue and then get this settled before the question causes Ted any more trouble in the primaries.

I’m leaning towards Trump but I also want Ted to be treated fairly and this damned thing will keep coming up until a court rules on it once and for all.

Plaintiff Walter L Wagner is also a self-proclaimed expert on UFOs, alien abductions, crop circles, and time travelers.

No standing. Now if Trump files, it would be possible for a court to grant a hearing.

Oh I forgot.

This guy’s other recent lawsuit was filed to stop the Large Hadron Collider from turning on because he was sure it would generate a black hole and doom us all.

Utah - Qualifications to be able to run for election for President of the United States in the state of Utah:

- "35 years old;"
- "Natural born citizen;"
- "Resident of the U.S. for 14 years"

Any state Atty General can file a lawsuit with standing.

I wish Trump would file on both Cruz and Rubio.

But Trump seems to think Rubio is okay just because he was born in the U.S., regardless of non-citizen parents at the time of birth.

But at this point Trump should wait until after Iowa, and win it first.

A bankrupt, UFOlogist, crop-circle expert who shopped at Sears is a birther and Trump supporter?

Shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

Trump was one of the most public birthers on Obama and forced him to show his BC. It is not like he is not knowledgeable about this issue.

Why doesn’t Cruz clear it up unless he has questions himself?

Pray America wakes
