you flatly lose the back & forth and now you shift. typical... for a democrat.
Only in your delusional mind.

Actually, you are exhibiting many symptoms of Delusional Democrat syndrome:

You insist on "re-interpreting" the plain text of the Constitution, just as Dems do to justify their claims of Constitutional "rights" to such things as abortion and same-sex marriage.

Your primary source is a misinterpretation of a mistranslation of "Les Droit des Gens". From this link:

Sometimes miscited is Emmerich de Vattel, in his work Les Droit des Gens (Law of Nations), taking out of context the words from Book I:
§ 212. ... The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.

But this is not a precise translation from the French, which has no exact equivalent to "natural born", and the French word word "parens" can mean close family, not necessarily biological parents. He was writing of a modified form of the rule of jus sanguinis that was municipal law (not the law of nations), and only for some countries on the European Continent. A little further down, he explains:

§ 214. ... there are states, as, for instance, England, where the single circumstance of being born in the country naturalizes the children of a foreigner.
However, "naturalizes" is also not an exact translation, which in Anglo-American law has come to mean a statutory or administrative process, but which for Vattel meant "makes one a citizen", which could include natural circumstances.
You ignore the consensus opinion that Ted Cruz, specifically, is a Natural Born Citizen, and thus eligible to be President. Just Google "Ted Cruz eligible to be President" for lots of examples. Any one of them is more credible than you and the rest of the Birther nutjobs.

You continue to ignore the fact that you rudely interrupted a thread about people discussing getting together to watch the debate in order to insert your obsession. That's just rude. I wouldn't expect a obsessive compulsive Birther nutjob to understand common politeness. Indeed, your rude behavior is also typical of Democrats.

Finally, the best example to ignore you and completely disregard anything you say: You are on the same side as Democrat crazy person Alan Grayson. Maybe you should hang out over at Democrat Underground with the rest of the nutjobs who agree with you and him.

One final question: Are you planning on coming to the gathering that was the purpose of this thread? The reason I ask is I am considering going, but I don't like to socialize with idiots or a$$holes, so you can certainly understand why I would want to know if you are going to be there.

To: Johnny B.

yes, obviously i must be ‘re-interpreting’ the original text available to the founders... written in plain english, 20 years before they met in philly.

seriously, get over it. TCruz is a democrap trap. they want him to get the nomination so they can disqualify him.

as for finding stuff on google... really? you need lessons in how to buy google rankings? it’s all part of the astro turf so favored by the left.
