The fact of the matter is that it is YOU that gets to decide if Cruz is "eligible". If you think he is, and you think he is the best candidate, then vote for him. If the only reason you don't support Cruz is because of some question of his pedigree, then you are free to do so.

The 20th Amendment notes that the electoral college gets to vote on the President and the Vice President. If, after they vote, it is determined that the President does not "qualify" then the vice president will become president until such time as the president qualifies.

So the issue of the eligibility of Ted Cruz is not ripe for any court decision until such time as he is actually elected president.

There is not a legitimate court in America that is going to rule that Ted Cruz is not eligible.

BTW by a strict application of the same criteria used to dismiss Cruz's eligibiity, Trump could be considered as ineligible since his Mother was a British Citizen at the time of his birth.

It is ridiculous, but then so are all the birther arguments against Cruz.

I was suppportive of both before Trump went Birther on us. Now I am solid Cruz.

Let's elect him and then deal with the birther issue after he and Sarah Palin are sworn in.

I am Cruz all the way and that birther stuff will go exactly as far as it went with Obama.

And if you actually read those Trump tweets, they were pathetic... one note pony stuff ... just taunts...worse than you see here and nothing at all of substance.

It was Canada, loans, Goldman Sachs, Canada, Canadian banks,
loans, Canada ... It was embarrassing.
