There is evidence pointing both ways as to the status of citizens born overseas.

IOW, there is reasonable doubt. What I am saying is that any reasonable doubt must be resolved in favor of Ted Cruz.

We owe it to our posterity to ensure that any and all benefit if the doubt be resolved in favor of Ted Cruz's NBC status. He is the point man in the battle to save this republic. He hasn't declared his candidacy because to do so would place everything he says and does from that point on under the regulations of the FEC.

We need to congeal around a single Tea Party Conservative NOW. If we delay this then we run the risk of there being a half dozen conservatives running against the GOPe candidate and in the end we will end up with another McCain or Romney.

So we can't wait until he declares before we work out this issue. We have to decide right here and right now whether or not we can support him for president, and those who insist that they could never support him because they think that it was the intention of the founders to exclude such a patriot in the face of the present constitutional crisis can and should find another forum to poison the well.

We need to air this issue out now and we need to find out who is with us and who is against us.

No court will ever rule that Ted Cruz is not a Natural Born Citizen. So this issue is a destructive distraction.

My plea is that all patriotic and pro-life and pro liberty Freeper will find it within their conscience to give Ted Cruz theq benefit of the doubt. This is nothing less than the most liberal or the most constitutionally conservative courts would do. It is not too much to ask.

Yes, there is reasonable doubt. Yes, it should and likely would be resolved in favor of Ted Cruz.

I have and do support Ted Cruz. He hasn’t declared, but if he stays the course he’s on now and does declare, I can and will support Ted Cruz. That probably makes me a hypocrite. So be it. Saving all of the Constitution versus enforcing three words is more important to me right now.

My plea is that you not force a whole group of FReepers who have invested five long years carefully forming their opinions to decide right this very minute where they will stand on a hypothetical Ted Cruz candidacy. Give them time to find some peace of mind. It’s not too much to ask either.

I’m with you. Many others will be too. It’s going to take some time though, ok? It’s a very raw wound for them.
