Don’t want to quibble over the legalities of the issue.
I personally believe Cruz constitutionally qualifies to be POTUS.
But...our side did make a big issue that BHO was only a freshman senator and the origin of his birth.
My uncle’s favorite saying...”what comes around, goes around.”
Can see this coming.
As far as the origins of his birth, the circumstance were different. If Obama had been born outside the US, because his mother would have failed to meet certain criteria (having to do with age and residency) and his father was a non-citizen, he would not be entitled to birthright citizenship. Cruz's mother, however, did meet all of the legal requirements, so despite not being born in the US and to a non-citizen (at the time) father, he still qualified for birthright citizenship.
Some on our side......don’t remember it going very far.
On the one hand it'd be hard to make a big deal out of his freshman Senator status without appearing to slam Obama. On the other hand, in 2016 the Democrat nominee will probably be running as far from Obama as they can so slamming Obama won't be a problem. They may very well try and make it an issue. I doubt it'll work though.
