Realistically why would Cruz be declared ineligible if 0dumbo was not?

For one, Obama had the liberal media in the tank for him and they covered up from the beginning any mention of the fact that his father made Obama a dual Citizen and the fact that Obama’s campaing website stated he was a ‘native citizen’ instead of a natural born Citizen. Not one reporter during the 08 election asked Obama to his face if he was a natural born Citizen or questioned him personally about his British Citizenship given to him by the British Act of 1948. Not one. Not one reporter questioned him about his Connecticut SS number when he never lived in Connecticut. Enter Ted Cruz. Now we have major networks and reporter asking Cruz to his face about if he is eligible or not. That was never done with Obama. Cruz citizenship is mainstream in the media like McCains was. Obama’s was not. All eligibility cases against Obama were never reported by the media to the public during the litigation process. They only reported the cases after the judge had ruled the cases moot or frivolous. See the double standard?

Also ALL the judges have been on Obama’s side making bogus judgements in favor of him twisting case law to make him eligible. Their written rulings have been laced with unethical responses trashing the plantiffs challenging Obama. I’ve sure you have read some. I don’t believe they would be so kind to Cruz as would the Secretary of States who would most likely investigate him if a ballot challenge was issued by a democrat plantiff.

Like every presidential election, candidate qualifications will be determined by the voters and their electors. The Constitutional standard is that a candidate be 35 years old, a resident of the US for 14 years and be a natural born citizen. The Constitution requires that the president be selected by the voters and a majority of their electors. Both voters and their electors are obliged to vote only for eligible candidates and they must determine eligibility as part of their constitutional function to select the president.

So, if there are people who believe that Cruz is not eligible for any reason, those people should make their pitch to the voters and their electors. If Cruz is then selected by a majority of the electors, that then is the end of the matter.

All else is baloney.
