As conservatives, as FReepers, lets no longer do what the MSM/Soros/democrat complex wants us to do on this issue, namely fight over the eligibility of Ted Cruz and divide the conservative movement at this crucial time. For those of you who believe he is not eligible, understand these two facts: 1. Senator Cruz has not declared for a presidential run at this point, so there is NO issue. Kindly stop making it an issue, particularly right now. Stop. Cease. Desist. It is not important, hes not running yet. Kindly don't post articles from the MSM or comment on said articles if they are only about the eligibility of Ted Cruz. 2.You are doing the bidding of the MSM/Soros/democrat complex when you do so. Theyve made it clear they want to divide us on this issue, dont take the bait. Also, see 1. above. Kindly realize that when the Wa ComPost runs 12 articles in 2 days about this issue, its not to help conservatives unite. For those of us who think he is eligible. Ridiculous.
Bury our heads in the sand--the problem will go away.
Under current Constitutional principles, he isn't eligible. If the Court is going to change the generally accepted view, that would be great and will happen no matter what we do now.
More likely, Jeb Bush and Christie wait until Cruz eliminates the Conservative candidates; then they and the national media will discover that Cruz is ineligible; the Republican Party will adopt convention rules preventing nomination of persons not eligible to hold the office; Bush will be the nominee and we will get another Liberal President.
We have plenty of time to work this problem if we start now. Further, it will help get organized for the coming campaign.
We should amend the Constitution to define the term Natural Born Citizen to mean a person who is a citizen at birth under Citizenship law in effect at the date of birth who has one parent, two grandparents; and four great grandparents who were born within the geographical territory of the several states.

No Amendment needed. Just find a candidate who is eligible as intended by the Founding Fathers.
To: David
Agreed! FORCE the Constitutional determination early.

I was thinking Dems would pull out the lack of jus solis at the last minute, but the Rs are just as likely to do it. For sure and certain it will be brought up at the last minute to disqualify him. That's why it's better to bring it up now, rather than later.

only under your self aggrandized illusion, or delusion, is he inelegible. Under orginal intent, he’s a keeper!
