He would not run if he is not eligible and he will be able to explain why he is eligible if he runs.

I was and am a huge supporter of Senator Cruz. I would really like one day to see him on the Supreme Court. I doubt his Constitutional eligibility for the Presidency. If he's running he owes us - and I look forward to hearing - his explanation of what he thinks a "natural born citizen" is and how he qualifies as one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

His explanation - yours, mine - even the explanation clearly outlined in the Constitution is irrelevant. If we were to simply abide by the Constitution - then Cruz is not eligible. But then - neither was Obama.

So. How do we support Cruz for president? Simple. We look at hundreds of lower courts who have ruled on what a NBC is. We look at the Supreme Court that has not overturned these rulings. We look at all 50 states and see no credible challenge. We look at the Congress which raises no objections. We look at the leaders of all political parties who raised no objections. We leven look at conservative talking heads like Rush, Levin and others who remain silent. All this and more.

And we face reality. Look. I’m the biggest birther there is. But the fact is - this is settled law. Ted Cruz is a Natural Born Citizen.

Don't. According to the major Constitutional authorities of the early United States, who knew our Founding Generation and many of the Founding Fathers themselves personally, "natural born citizen" really just means "born a citizen." And Cruz is perfectly eligible.
