Diana Orrock, the Nevada state committeewoman for the Republican National Committee, is among the latest high-profile figures insisting that GOP presidential candidate (and Texas Senator) Ted Cruz is ineligible for the presidency because he is not a "natural-born citizen".
Orrock didn't stop there, however. She also argues that Florida Senator Marco Rubio should be disqualified from running because he was born to immigrant parents, despite the fact that he was born in Miami, Florida.
She tweeted on Tuesday the link to the right-wing website "News with Views", featuring an article that discusses the Constitutional grounds that would allegedly disqualify the two Senators from running for president:
The article's author, Devvy Kidd, wrote in part:
Donald Trump can take the high road on this by stating there are two candidates who are not constitutionally eligible to be on the ballot, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz.
Kidd went on suggest the language Trump should use when calling out the two Hispanic candidates::
My actions would be the same if the candidates were John Kasich or Dr. Ben Carson. I am running to take an oath to preserve and protect the U.S. Constitution and that's what I'm doing.
It's a most unfortunate situation for both candidates and their supporters but surely they (Ted Cruz being a lawyer and former Solicitor General for the State of Texas) should have known they do not meet constitutional eligibility.

She should be relieved of her position.

Apparently Edward Cruz didn’t even know he was a Canadain citizen.
Karl Roves step daughter
Well, considering they’re both behind by 30 points, they’re practically are anyway.
I think she is some low-level flunky in the RNC. Her opinion on this carries as much weight as mine does. The only difference is she gets 15 minutes in the hot seat, and I get to sit in my comfy chair.
Yeah, almost as crazy as the Trumpbots on FR.
There seem to be some real nut-job ‘pubs in NV.
RNC stands for Real Nut Case!
The rats and the media will join forces on this in the General.
Good. The RNC might as well settle this before the DNC gets around to destroying them over it.
NOW we know why Humpty Trumpty has been so pouty mouth these last few days.
NBCWSJ NATIONAL: CRUZ 28% TRUMP 26% RUBIO 17%...
The thrill is gone...... DONEald. Except of course for you paid trump shills.
Why has Humpty Trumpty has been so pouty mouth these last few days?
NBCWSJ NATIONAL: CRUZ 28% TRUMP 26% RUBIO 17%...
The thrill is gone...... DONEald.
Again I have to ask... When was the last time you saw a political party go after their frontrunners?! If they have a question of eligibility, try it in court and get an answer. These tweets and other statements are just hurting candidates. How does that help the RNC or anyone else? Oh yeah... if these two leave, then we have Trump, who funded the establishment or Bush, who is the establishment. Got it.
Is this her?
