He say he is self funded, but he is taking reimbursements it seems from those donations.

You do realize why he is taking the small donations don't you? Or you just like to lie?

“The facts are clear. I was born in Calgary. My parents — as a legal matter, my mother is an American citizen by birth. And it’s been federal law for over two centuries that the child of an American citizen born abroad is a citizen by birth, a natural born citizen.”—Ted Cruz There is a legal consensus on the issue. And the Naturalization Act of 1790, passed three years after the U.S. Constitution was written, said that “the children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens.”

A flat out LIE and he knows it... old 'original intent' Ted using an Act of Congress to claim what has NOT been federal law ever. Again, only Two US citizen parents giving birth to a child on US soil makes one 'natural born'...

Geeze I went back and watched that debate where he flat out lie and he so reminds me of bj and hilly Clinton... trained liars.

“Some of the greatest Christian warriors are those who converted late in life.”

So correct me if I am wrong, are you calling Donald Trump a Christian warrior, when he has stated on camera that he does not need forgiveness from God. That is the very essence of being a Christian, knowing you are a sinner, and that you are in need of a Savior, that Savior being Jesus Christ! In order to be a child of God, you must admit you are a sinner and needs God’s forgiveness in order to be born again! If I am wrong tell me where I am wrong at!

I watched his interview with the lady from CNN.

So, he says he’ll let some come back, legally, but for now, no citizenship. Not as good as I’d like, but we’ll have to see. It’s certainly not a deal breaker for me.

The ones with criminal records can’t come back. I’m good with that.

I haven’t changed my mind because I still believe that not as good as I’d like is still better than any of the others would do, which is nothing.

I’m not asking congress, I’m asking posters on this site, who seem to be defending PP. Let’s get this straight, IMO any support or defense of PP marks you as a scum bag pro abort

I disagree with Trump on many issues. I also do not believe him to be as “conservative” as so many with rose colored glasses believe him to be. Much of this show between the candidates on the road is kabuki, as I see it. Trump will do whatever he can to beat Cruz, but in the end, should Trump get the nod, he will be after Cruz for his “team” and Cruz will likely agree. Both need each other and both will “bury the hatchet” to make their goals become reality. I think Palin knows that, as well. It was her misfortune to have been saddled with marbles the last go around. She has grown since then.

What do you mean you are not asking Congress. They are the ones who keep using tax dollars to keep PP body parts in business. I am suppose to ignore reality? The only time I have yet to hear Trump mention it is when somebody either asks his opinion or outright accuses him of doing something that is not even on his agenda. Why has not the smartest guy in America set his legal skills onto turning over Roe v Wade?

I despise PP but I am forced by the long arm of government to fund the despicable business... I am tired and exhausted of the year in and year out chatter over the most evil business in the world.

Which is cruder. Metaphorically stating someone is "sleeping with the devil" or calling a man a "pussy"?

Welcome to American politics.

Granted, we no longer have congresscritters assaulting each other on the floor of the House with canes and desks, but crudity is deeply ingrained in politics.

Once upon a time, calling a man a "liar" would have gotten you an invite to a duel. Today, it is seen as a valid post on FR.

With all that Trump v Cruz supporters have posted on these boards the past few months, concerning the opposing factions, I'd say there is not much to be shocked or horrified at......not any longer.

“Sarah Palin knows both Trump and Cruz personally and professionally. To me her endorsement means a great deal because I trust her judgment.”

Mrs. Palin has a right to endorse anyone she pleases to! I have no objection to her endorsement, what myself and many other veterans did not appreciate was when her son beat his girl friend and held a AR-15 to her head, she blamed it on PTSD and never said he needed to accept responsibility for his actions! And although her son was in a combat zone, he never had any actual combat time! And being a Vietnam Vet, I know a little about PTSD!

Point of clarification: I like Sarah, politically. She holds the correct stands, most of the time. Her personal life, well, not perfect. Of course, Reagan had a wonderful political outlook. Even though his kids were assholes.

It used to be a principled conservative site. Now, it’s becoming a Trump fan club.

Look buddy, you butted in on my question to another poster who seems to be supporting PP.
I have never in my 59 years supported abortion, so I'm unable to understand those who have no problem with PBA, Trump said he supported it, but changed his mind, I have met people who used to support it but accepted Jesus Christ and changed.
What caused Trump's conversion? Trump believes in God, but hasn't sought forgiveness. I am very troubled by that, the conversion smacks of politics
