Some of these people are going to become unhinged trying to figure out new angles to show that Trump will not, can not win, I mean, more than they already are.

If she were a Canadian, it would most likely disqualify Ted Cruz as not a natural born citizen.

No, it wouldn't - as long as she still held her U.S. citizenship at the time of his birth. Canada law allows for dual citizenship. But this is moot as she was not a Canadian citizen at the time of his birth, period.

Ah. well Trump teed off on Bill Clinton and essentially removed him, and Hillary’s “war on women” meme from the conversation. Then he published a short but strong video on Instagram about them. Basically neutralized them....for now.

I see. You are right on it being moot.

Yep, my thought too. Trump was asked, and he repeated what he said a long time ago. I happen to believe Cruz is eligible, but there are legal arguments to the contrary, and it would take SCOTUS to lay the issue to rest. I also am quite sure if Cruz were the nominee the Democrats would make an issue of it. They would probably move to keep him off the ballot in some states, requiring Cruz to sue to force them to put him on. That could drag on through the election and beyond. It would be like Gore vs. Bush 2000 on steroids. As yourself, do you put it past the RATS to do that? Voters should think about whether they want a nominee that brings that kind of baggage.

One of the hallmarks of a strong and free Republic is vigorous debate.

When you use emotional words that Leftist use like “hateful” when they cannot win a debate on facts and logic..., then it tells me everything I need to know about you.

I get it you want everyone to be “sensitive”, “leoving” and “political correct”......

Yes that soft spoken/politically correct/ Jeb Bush loving approach, then you are letting the Leftist Establishment CONTROL the narrative and debate by CENSORING YOURSELF.

That type of cult like mind control, Jim Jones, “you better be nice”, 1984 mindset of everyone needs to think the same as me is why our Republic is in such trouble.

We have been being nice our entire lives and LOOK... where are Republic is now.

I wish you were less focus on trendy “style” points and focused more energy on the people that are trying to steal your freedoms, destroy this Republic and the U.S. Constitution.

Actually Trump raised the question of eligibility several months ago. That is why he was asked about it this time. In the interim, he said he had checked it out and Cruz was eligible. Of course, he conveniently forgot that when Cruz got ahead in Iowa.

He is also a natural born citizen of the U.S.A.

At least we agree on that. However, as it states on the home page, PERSONAL ATTACKS are not welcome, and are a sign of lack of control of emotion, and lack of ammo.

If you can't make your point without making personal attacks, it's not a debate, it's just you trying to make yourself feel better (emotion).

So... methinks you are projecting with your complaint.
