OK, let the sparks fly on the "NATURAL BORN CITIZEN" clause once again.

I truly admire Ted Cruz. Think he is doing a great job.

BUT, as you said, he is not a natural born citizen as is required by the constitution.

Of course all the RINO’s, who are so worried about garnering the hispanic vote, will fall in right behind him.

Cruz is Natural Born Citizen since his mother was a US citizen at the time of his birth.

He was born in Calgary, Alberta Canada, he cannot run, but he is a fine senator.

This is a really, really good idea.

I support this plan.

I do not yet support Ted Cruz for president - too early to pick a candidate. But I strongly support his candidacy.

I'm extremely tempted to say whats good for the goose is good for the gander, since Obama is not a natural born citizen either (even if he was born in Hawaii, there is no denial that his father was a British national).

Is there anyone else with more conservative and charismatic who has a chance of winning? I don't think so.

I truly, truly wish he could run. I consider it an extremely cruel twist of fate that the one guy out there right now that I can really get behind...Can't run.

Rand-Amnesty-Paul, anyone?

It won’t matter. There won’t be another presidential election.

He, currently, sounds better than the others who are falling out of favor faster than the half-dozen 2012 primaries leaders did.

Ryan, Rubio and Paul seem to have drunk the kool-aide for the amnesty bill. Whether it passes or not, just their support makes them undesirable candidates.

Christie is still trying to get in bed with Obama, his new BFF since Hurricane Sandy.

I agree with you, but that certainly didn't stop the Kenyan

I get a tad worried when the Ted Cruz’s and the Sarah Palin’s (wait, there is only one of each) get antsy and maybe a little overreaching in terms of their political careers. Arguably, Cruz’ influence might diminish if he were to become all wrapped in a pres run. Arguably, Sarah’s ability to influence is larger than if she were VP. Tough call. We need young, we need vibrant, we need aggressive, and these two are that. I happen to like TC and SP right where they are.

Is it your contention that someone born overseas even with American parents is not a natural born citizen?

Seems to the that the assclown currently in office got by with a pedigree identical to this ... goose, meet gander.

Personally, I would rather see him on the Supreme Court. Although it would not be unprecedented for a former president to be appointed a supreme...
