Don’t look too deep at Cruz

In Inglis v. Trustees (1830) and Elk v. Wilkins (1884), the Supreme Court ruled that a child born on U.S. soil, of a father who owes allegiance to a sovereignty other than the United States, is not a U.S. citizen at birth; the citizenship of such a child is that of its father, not its place of birth [20]. Consequently, the U.S.-born child of a foreign-citizen father cannot be a natural born citizen [41].
Tell that to Precedent Obama. Before 2008 I believed as you do, but that is now a moot point. Not one of our elected or judicial officials raised a finger to defend Art. II Sec. 1, it’s dead.
If the 2016 Presidential races is a Clinton-Bush affair, They can go ahead with out me.
I will be out looking at grave sites.
I second that motion.
Terri Schiavo.
nough said
Jebbie must be sharing a dinner table with Poppin’ Fresh himself...Karl Rove. They are going to wind up on that ‘Separated at Birth’ website if they aren’t careful...
Even the NYT knows that the GOP base has figured out that Jeb is a looser.
I expect the NYT to start pushing Carly and/or the Huckster next.
Agreed.
Both are quality candidates.
The rest, not so much.
Every Fox News panel tells us that Bush, Rubio or Walker are the top tier candidates.
Since Fox News is part of The Ministry Of Propaganda doing the bidding of The Cheap Labor Express, that tells me that all of their acceptable candidates are on board The Cheap Labor Express.
Everything is aimed at making sure we do not elect a President who will stop the cheap labor importation.
Carly, Huckster, Grahamnesty, Perry and any others that jump in are in as blockers for The Cheap Labor Express, designed to stop conservatives coalescing behind Cruz.
I have doubs about Cruz’s leadership ability, though I have to say his vaulting of Paul is a beautiful thing. My other concern is that he buys far too much into the libertarian untested wingnuttery, I’m practical and take a conservative economic approach, I’m no ideologue.
“Poppin’ Fresh himself...Karl Rove.”
Heh, heh! Actually both the Jebster & Rove have that Pillsbury Doughboy look.
CRUZ or Lose!
He’s the only one that strikes me as capable of doing the job. I’m completely with you on NOT giving tax incentives to businesses to import workers rather than hiring workers from the market they are trading in. We are not a free employment training program for the rest of the world. Thing is the only power the president has there is to sign or not sign traitorous and short-sightest legislation of this sort, if I’m not mistaken.
BTW- add Walker and Cruz to your list.
The President is supposed to enforce the laws currently on the books, hard to believe watching the current one protecting fraudulently documented forigners from the laws instead.
We must elect a President who will enforce the laws. The reason we have 30 million illegal aliens is we have not had any enforcement since the last amnesty.
You are right, I stand corrected, we shouldn’t assume a president will not reject the country’s legal reality and substitute his own.
Its OK for us to break the law because they did it?
Ted Cruz. Accept no substitute.
I wonder if the sales pitch for a Jeb vote will be the always fresh and original “He’s not perfect, but if you don’t vote for him, you’ll help elect a democrat.”
It’s a rationalization never before heard in prior elections, and the GOPe really ought to consider using it to sell this BS mediocrity.
It’s tragic how the country has gone from having leaders offering a bright positive vision of America to a burnt out shuffling wheeze bags repeating worn out exhortation to reward mediocrity so that something even more mediocre doesn’t get the prize.
