It appears to me the only way this is going to be resolved in case such as Cruz and Rubio and Jindal is for the SCOTUS to accept a case. The only way SCOTUS is going to accept a case is if the test presented in Jones v Bush is applied.

I am not trying to argue the merits of any case, but I think the courts would pretty cite the 14th amendment in its decision. I can count at least 6 votes now.

I dunno. By SCOTUS remaining silent on hundreds of lower court rulings, does that not send a clear signal that Obama is eligible?

I don’t think we need a new Amendment reversing the NBC clause of the Constitution or a Supreme Court ruling. The lower courts have ruled; the precedent is set. Therefore....

The Proper solution is a Congressional Act. The wording of the Constitutional provision seems to call for such an act at an appropriate time.
