I cannot see any way that this issue of Cruz’ citizenship can be resolved to the satisfaction of people who want to believe he’s not a citizen.

I’ve seen a lot of posts quoting this statute, this opinion, this ruling and nothing is definitive. I believe he is a citizen and qualified but people who don’t like him or prefer Trump won’t.

So unless Moses comes down from the mountain with a tablet, I don’t see how this can be resolved to everyone’s satisfaction.

I believe Cruz is a citizen certainly, I don’t believe he is a Natural Born Citizen, if I am being honest about what I believe that was intended to mean. However, I do think Ted would be a great President if that were to happen. I just think that the Founders had a specific intention in mind and I would like it to be followed, regardless of the outcome regarding Ted Cruz.

I bet you people would disagree with Moses and his tablet too.

I’m not sure if everyone can be convinced either, not even by a SCOTUS ruling.

I think it may boil down to what is the best way to effectively convince as many people as you can that there is no issue, and I’m not sure what the answer to that is, because how does one get a court to rule on it prior to the election?

Whatever the case, I am in control of what’s in my mind, and I say he’s eligible, and I would vote for him with no reservation.

People might have to arrive at their own conclusion on this and go with it.

I'm a Trump supporter but I believe Cruz is as much a citizen as any other natural born American. If it were up to me, we'd bring Canada into the U.S. anyhow. Well maybe excepting Quebec.

Trump's taking a lot of heat on this (as always) but I see his point. If Cruz gets nominated and the Dems are able to make hay of this in the general, that's not good for our side. Cruz will have a tough enough time as it is in the general.

I was really hoping Cruz could just end this silliness by either producing the necessary documentation or otherwise obtaining a court ruling that would hold up to additional scrutiny and put this to bed. It's a shame that this is even happening. But better to get it resolved now then during the general.
