I've seen others with your position say they will support Cruz because the dems shredded any possibility of your position being law by ignoring that principle for two elections. I've seen others with your position come to the recognition that the original intent was to prevent people of divided loyalties to the American ideals from being President.. Ted Cruz has no divided loyalties at all, yet Jeb, Christie, Hillary and the majority of othr candidates do.
Kindly consider those ideas, or at least cease and desist if you still want to be a poster here.
Keeping Cruz in the senate and bolstering our power in the Senate is an argument that makes sense, but this birther stuff is nonsense.
Winstons Julia doesn’t reveal her state.
JCBreckenridge doesn’t reveal her state.
CitizenUSA is from Oklahoma.
dowcaet doesn’t reveal her state.
If you’re constitutionalists, did you lobby your state legislature to codify the NBC definition? Did you lobby your state legislature to require a Birth Certificate for General Election and/or primary ballot access? Are you working on it in your state?
Or are you just planning a federal lawsuit, like the leftists do? Are most Noobie-birthers really Rand-Paulistas? or are they RINO-Cristie trolls?
I'm afraid there's very little logic involved in their position - rather, a boatload of emotion. As such, you really can't convince them - it's almost a religious issue.
When I was a kid, my mom told me that if I ever wanted to, I could affirmatively choose to claim Canadian citizenship, but I got a U.S. passport when I was in high school, I never did anything to affirmatively claim citizenship, so I thought that was the end of the matter, Cruz said on CNN yesterday.
I believe the law is clear that a candidate must show proof of their qualifications. The law was simply not followed. Nancy Pelosi simply pencil-whipped Obama’s certification. NO change is law is needed, we just need to find a means to enforce the law. Just like illegal immigration: No new laws needed since we refuse to follow the ones we already have.
“You need to provide proof that Ted Cruz holds a valid Canadian passport. Period. Or shut up.”
You seem to have ignored JRandomFreeper’s first sentence in his post (above).
Just do it if you can...You can’t, can you?

Jim, please be patient with JCBreckenridge (and myself).
JCBreckenridge, what about CATO’s position that Senator Cruz is a natural born American, because he was born in a foreign country to an American mother who met the legal requirements of that time?

What question? Did I miss it?
Cruz could have a Canadian Passport based upon his birth place. But did he ever request
one and was it issued? If so can you link the citation of such event?
Sorry, I jumped the gun. Just saw he’s been Zotted.
I am in Illinois.
I’m not any sort of troll. I had no idea that there had been some huge deal previously here on Free Republic regarding Cruz’ eligibility.
I didn’t know that Jim Robinson had said, “Cruz or else.”
I just figured that I was free to express my thoughts about Cruz and the NBC issue without threat of banishment.
i am not aware that you have been banished.
See post #102.
I read this as Ted saying he never held a Canadian passport.
You should get out more.
And didn't I see you on a lot of the Cruz NBC threads?
/johnny
IIRC, JC is a he and is from Texas. But I could be wrong.
I have not... but you certainly have seen the comments saying that people who have questions about Cruz’ eligibility should be zotted.
As I said, I was unaware of the previous drama surrounding the issue.
