irrelevant.

you really need to learn what a natural born citizen is and why the founders used the term.

then you’ll understand what’s about to happen.

unless, of course, you’re an agent for the dems in which case, you already know.

So you’re birthering Cruz? Despite Obama actually being President?

McCain was born in Panama.

It’s a nonsense argument. Cruz is eligible to be President.

I can see it’s clear you don’t understand the history, purpose or meaning of the Natural Born requirement.

You can start correcting your thinking here:

And pay particular attention to the legal distinction between the terms ‘residence’ and ‘domicile’.

You really need to show me what line in the Constitution you have used to "learn" what the founders meant when you claim that you, and only you, know what the founders meant.

It is what it is. TED CRUZ is a natural born American.

When Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. (II?) ... Barry Soetoro ... Steve Dunham .... pick one ... initially ran as a Presidential Candidate, I thought I knew what a "Natural Born Citizen" was. I.E, a person who was the offspring of two (2) American Citizens. Therefore, BHO, was not. Citizen? Perhaps. Natural Born Citizen? No way.

Now I know nothing. The Courts have refused to clarify what a citizen is, never mind a "Natural Born Citizen." A child born to illegal alien (or legal alien) parents is somehow automatically a citizen, and I am told on no particular authority that this child is also a "Natural Born Citizen," to boot. The Congress of the USA has accepted the POTUS as eligible. 50 states AsG have found him eligible. 53% of the electorate voted him into office. The Electoral College says so. The Electoral Vote was seconded by the Senate. The Chief Justice of the SCOTUS swore him in. Twice.

Looks like some sort of done deal to me. It seems to me that because the COTUS is not crystal clear on the matter, guided public opinion has decided what or who is a natural born citizen. The new definition seems to be that having one parent as a US citizen is enough, no matter where the birth took place. In addition, apparently one can also be a natural born citizen if born in the US, whether one's parents are here legally, or illegally.

IOW, the question has been decided by vote and some sort of institutional consensus. Not my vote. Not my agreement. But there it is.
