Cruz Will Be On Hannity Tonight at 9:00 P.M. CST

For those interested, Cruz will be on Hannity tonight. Should be an interesting post victory interview!

Then what about Bobbie Jindel and Gov. Haley from SC? The only way to be born in 1789 was natural born, within the colonies or terroritories. McCain was technically born on US soil as he was born on a military base. A person born inside an embassy abroad would be a citizen as that is considered US property, ergo the reality that Benghazi was an attack on US soil.

Cruz is the only one not on technical US soil. I wish he was ineligible but think that the courts would side with him by virtue of his mother's citizenship. Just like children of ex-pats are US citizens even if they are living in Paris at the time of their births. It also means that Churchill could have run for President as he was born in England but his mother was still a US citizen.

If you saw the debate when Cruz was asked about his eligibility by a moderator, not Trump... Cruz began his answer saying that Rubio, Jindal, and I think Santorum also had eligibility questions.. That is when I knew he is fully briefed on ‘natural born’ eligibility. Cruz never ever answered the question.... When Trump suggest he get it straightened out, then Cruz LIED and snarked that Trump's mother might cause Trump eligibility questions. Cruz knows he is not eligible, because nobody can make him ‘natural born’. His birth on Canadian soil and a non-citizen father are two things that will never change.

I am not a lawyer. I was born in Germany, and when I studied the Constitution in what is commonly called middle school I learned that I was born a citizen, but I was not born a ‘natural born’ citizen. To be ‘natural born’ citizen required two citizen parents born in the United States.

Lord McCain got the Senate to declare him eligible. Everybody accepted that is all it takes. I have read recently that McConnel refused to bless Cruz with eligibility. Personally I do not consider lord McCain ‘natural born’, but, some people are entitled.

Cruz's claim to fame was he was in favor of ‘original intent’ of the Constitution, except he expects to exempt himself from ‘original intent’.. If Rubio wins the nomination, Cruz cannot challenge his eligibility because Cruz is not eligible himself... I never thought I would see the day that the GOP would flaunt the Constitution so fragrantly. Going to be a wild ride.
