Apparently arguing that America should be governed by an American makes one a concern troll.

OMG. And someone who was born a United States citizen, who has been a United States citizen since birth, and who was raised in the United States, is not an "American?"

Not anymore than he’s a Cuban and a Canadian too.

The Founding fathers did not want someone with divided loyalties at the head of the nation. For good reasons too. This is why they had the restriction that they did.

Again - you believe that unless the Republicans nominate Cruz they will lose, correct?

No one is saying that, what they are saying is Ted is not a Natural Born Citizen, and that term has a definition, unfortunately we will have to wait on a corrupt Court to tell us what the Constitution says in plain English.

In any case the two terms,"Citizen" and "Natural Born Citizen" had meaning to the Founders, they just didn't understand that complicated Old English so they left the true definition to be debated and defined by our betters.
