Appreciate the ping.

I heard Mark make these statements that are the basis for this thread.

They weren’t intended to be a highbrow treatise on this subject, although he could’ve chosen that way. Just a few off-the-cuff, common sense remarks and the example he gave of the silliness supposing an American mother goes on a trip and her baby decides to be born while she’s “over the line” somewhere, she just has to forget the possibility that her child could ever grow up and become President.

I’ve used that type of example. That example doesn’t suffice for proof but it gets the subject percolating as to what is the reason for having natural born citizens be eligible? Obviously it was NOT to stop a candidacy of someone who’s birth moment came when his American mom was visiting or temporarily working across a boundary line.

But those who are determined to will claim that this is ALL Mark knows about the issue and he’s just a big nothing goofball about it.

Of course not. That’s ridiculous. But common sense and real life examples aren’t bad to percolate the issue into the land of REALVILLE that Rush talks about.

Too bad some are immune and would rip apart this conservative movement over this if they can.

When as Jim rightly reminds, we are conservatives, revere the Constitution AND are fighting like the Alamo’s last stand (had to get a Texan reference in) to save this Republic.

And some of those here appear to be taking positions along our flank and taking pot shots at our soldiers.

Some seem to prefer to be on the side of our enemies and are using this issue as a wedge to try to divide us and then allow the enemy to conquer us.

This is a non-issue. There is not a single court in America that will rule that Cruz is not eligible. So this whole issue is nothing but an attempt by some to sew the seeds of dissension among the troops. It is time we weed out the traitors and continue our march forward.
