“it will suffice.”
The law says otherwise.
“Natural Born”
The law also says otherwise. Natural born must be born in the US or in the exception that you cited which doesn’t apply to Cruz in any way shape or form.
It seems monstrously unfair but we know by now it’s foolish to take chances with a debatable thing if alternatives are available. A solidly, unquestionably American-born candidate is needed.
This is how Hillary Clinton will become the next President:
Cruz wins the republican nomination and the general election.
Someone (who has had the information for ten years) leaks Obama’s Occidental records, showing that he claimed Indonesian citizenship.
Suddenly the MSM sees this as a story, and it runs at the top of the 24/7 news cycle for weeks.
Headline: OBAMA WAS NEVER ELIGIBLE!!!
Clinton sues to have the election results overturned, citing Cruz’ dual citizenship.
In the last EVER originalist decision issued by the SCOTUS, NBC status is defined as “born of two U.S. citizen parents on U.S. soil. The vote is 6-3.
Scalia’s head explodes, and he writes the most insane, rambling and incoherent defense of un-originalism (living constitution) ever seen.
The ruling also states that, since Obama was elected twice, and actually served as POTUS, nothing done in the preceeding eight years is affected by the decision.
Scalia’s dissent becomes the most frequently cited legal document in the removal of the first, second and fourth amendment rights of U.S. citizens.
The Republican party declares the conservative wing of the party “dead”, stating “we listened to you idiots this time and look where it got us”.
One party socialist, big-government rule continues unabated until Jesus’ retun.
Freepers blame me for not voting for Romney when I had the chance.
