I REALLY, REALLY hope so, because together they could thwart the ability of the dems to get a corrupt judge to throw out the R candidate when it’s too late to replace him. AND bring into the open, with legal proof, the coup of 2008.
If Cruz really did bring up Trump’s mother being born in Scotland (I didn’t watch the debate), then it does seem like a set-up - like 2 pro wrestlers who know what the final outcome will be - because as long as Trump’s mother was a US citizen when Trump was born on US soil, her foreign birth would not disqualify Trump by ANYBODY’s interpretation, and I’m sure Cruz knows that.
The one who would have standing to sue is Trump, once Cruz gets primary votes. And that’s what Trump needs to do, if he genuinely cares about any of us, the Constitution, the R party, or the US as a whole. If Trump does file suit saying that Cruz is ineligible because he was born outside the US, Cruz could use as one of his arguments the fact that the HI state registrar would not verify the birth facts on Obama’s HI BC, even though statute says he MUST if the submitted facts match what is claimed on a LEGALLY VALID birth certificate. (See my last comment for more context on that). If Trump’s lawyer and Cruz’s lawyer both cede to that fact, the only way the judge could try to get around it is by ordering the evidence admitted into court. And then discovery begins...
I REALLY, REALLY hope they do this.
Hmmm. [head-scratch] [ponder] Hmmmmm.
OK, I give up. What do you suppose the reply is when the Court looks dumbfounded on hearing this argument and asks the Cruz legal team "How is Dr. Onaka's verification conceivably relevant to the Constitutional claims that birth outside the U.S. renders Sen. Cruz ineligible?"
I'm sure you have a theory that will prove most entertaining.
