As much as I like Cruz, I haven’t been convinced that he’s eligible. His father was not a citizen at the time of his birth and he was born in Canada.
Ted Cruz - Greatest Vote I have cast since Nov. 84’
Betcha that’s torquing off Rove. Makes my day!
Cruz/West - 2016
Cruz is excellent. Glad to see him topping one of these polls, since many of the other candidates have either fully disqualified themselves, or muddied their reputation.
Funny to see this spat between Krispy Kreme and Rand Paul. A foreshadowing of things to come?
That’s not the law, fortuntely in this case.
Title 8 section 1401 subsection G qualifies Mr Cruz through his US citizen mother and grants him citizenship at birth. Since he has never needed naturalization, he is a natural born citizen.
If hundreds of lower court decisions and the Supreme Court validating those decisions regarding Obama have not settled this issue, then I suggest you just abstain from the political process of voting.
Its too complicated for you.
I am on Cruz control.
This is great news.
Cruz, our first Hispanic vs our First woman in 2016? Or will it be the Press’s choice of our 1st loudmouth vs. the First woman?
They'll say he's a white Canadian vs the wise woman who shares the same cherokee blood as Elizabeth Warren.
Chuck Schumer and the Democrats did Ted Cruz an enormous favor by eliminating Marco Rubio as a presidential contender, and now Chris Christie and Rand Paul are destroying each other.
The only thing Ted Cruz has to worry about is the type of manufactured scandal that did in Herman Cain.
However, if Anthony Weiner and Elliot Spitzer become NYC mayor and comptroller, they will so dominate the airwaves as poster boys for outrageously degenerate Democratic behavior, the Democrats won’t be able to point fingers at anyone.
If anti-Cruz slanders and attacks come from any source, it will likely be from the Karl Rove/RNC political machine. If Ted Cruz can handle them, it will be a great day for Conservatives, the Republican party, and the country.
Wish I could have voted for him twice!! Well, I did in the Primary and the General, but I meant in the General like the dems routinely do.
It is not often a true fearless and honorable patriot star comes along. Not yet going to compare to Forefathers, but he may prove out.
Correct. The mistaken many think it requires both parents to be US Citizens, it does not.
Hate to burst your bubbles, but Rand will stand up fine against Christie, Herman’s scandals were his own making and Cruz has already been through the crucible from the worst Texas politician, Dewhurst and came out a brighter star than before.
Ditto. It's starting to look as if Cruz will be the last conservative republican standing.
