“So, if he didn’t hide his Canadian birth certificate, what does that say about him?”

It does say he’s honest but it also says to me that I don’t want him as President. All of his other qualifications are fine and exemplary, but I do NOT want to open the door to foreign-born politicians becoming our President.

If it’s acceptable to let someone be President who spent the first four years of his life in Canada then why not have a President who spent the first 20,30, or 40 years of his life in Russia, China, or Saudi Arabia?

Sorry, but Cruz cannot get my vote and that’s not because I’ll support Hillary it’s because she absolutely will sue to kick him off the ballot if he’s nominated.

Just the same as a Republican would do if they could prove the Democrat was born in Canada.

It’s good that you think he’s honest.

Do you think that his graduation magna cum laude from Harvard Law School, his clerking for former conservative chief justice of the Supreme Court, William Rehnquist, and his years as solicitor general of the state of Texas, might give him insight into the law about his own qualifications for the presidency?

With that legal background, and being an honest man, he wouldn’t even apply for the job if he didn’t think he qualified. Personally, I think he qualifies and that all declared citizens at birth by Congress do qualify.

However, his knowledge of the law is huge. I don’t think he’d run if he saw a problem.

In the meantime, the Washington Post and the other major media are trying to destroy him. I know you do believe he qualifies to be a Senator, a governor of Texas, or a future Supreme Court Justice. I don’t think you’d want to join in tearing him down in such a way that it would injure his ability in future elections. In other words, when he runs for President, then you can pile on. In the meantime, lets try to preserve an awesome conservative leader.

Why do they fear him? Because his background is Hispanic, and someone like him could greatly affect the liberal argument that Hispanics reject conservatives.

Why do they fear him? Because he is Christian. With his leadership, religious conservatives could be unified and become the huge voting bloc they were for Reagan.
