CHARITON, Iowa — They usually mean no offense, but every now and then, supporters of Ted Cruz bring up The Question.
“I’m sure you’re aware that the Constitution requires the president to be a natural-born citizen,†David Bishop, a teacher, told Cruz during a stop Saturday night in this small southern Iowa city. “Don’t get this wrong: I’m supporting your candidacy, but I hope this doesn’t become an issue for you.â€(continued)

Our side is the side that would prefer adherence to the Constitution as written. I used the word “our” since I gleaned from your original post that you also would prefer adherence to the Constitution as written.
But, at least as far as the applying the phrase “natural born citizen” in the manner intended by the framers, our courts have pretty comprehensively ruled so as to set those words aside and embrace a poseur in the office of the Presidency. This they have done by denying standing to any one and everyone who has attempted to bring this matter forward.
With respect to Ted Cruz, Alan Grayson and others will meet the same fate as Orly Taitz and every other complainant that tried to get the courts to take this up with respect to Obama. It is over.
That was and remains my only point in this discussion. This is a dead horse.
That being the case, at least let me have a President I can trust.
You have "gleaned" my statement as support for your "case", when I could not give two $hits about your case.
It does not matter what I think about the NBC questions. That's for the court to decide. I changed my support from Cruz to Trump, because of Cruz, if the court says he is a viable candidate, I support him for VP.
You can see, there is no answer, and these are his "supporters".
With Trump this is not part of the equation.
You are clinically insane. It is not my case.
You, that is YOU are the one who made this statement: “Ted is no more a Natural Born Citizen than Obama. Both parents must be citizens.”
That’s YOUR case, YOUR statement - YOU made it, not me.
I may happen to agree with it and you may not give two $hits whether I do or not, that is up to you, but you don’t get to make statements then walk away from them. Or maybe you do, but in that case, please refer to my opening sentence.
‘bone’
Once the meds kick in, you may be able to understand whatever thought process you are attempting to spew, until then, keep your misunderstood gleaned thoughts inside.
Wow, you are one snotty bastard.
Your join date says 2000 but I don’t think I have ever seen you post before.
Been trolling long?
Head back to DU, name caller. You jackoffs are ruining this forum.
