Presidential candidate Donald Trump told ABC's George Stephanopoulos that he'll consider filing a lawsuit against Ted Cruz regarding his U.S. citizenship. Trump made the comments after Stephanopoulos asked whether he'd sue.

And let's not forget Trump pimping the 9/11 tragedy.
What does trump have to do with whether or not Cruz is eligible? I have heard the rumblings over the past few years. It was not anything trump did or said that now convinces me Cruz is NOT natural born. It was Cruz himself in the last debate. The Constitution was not on his side thus he jabbered about who else might not be eligible... Then when he brought Trump’s mother as creating trump questions, I knew he is lying, and I knew that he knows that he is not eligible under his so called claim to fame..original intent. He conveniently exempts himself from original intent.
But hey carry on bashing trump, Constitution be damned. People sure do not mind being liberal when it suits their own purposes.
I believe your reasoning mirrors that of the courts.
No mere citizen has standing to question a candidate for president, because the actions of a(n unconstitutional) president would have no effect on the day-to-day lives of peasants.
Uppty peasants have no rights to question their betters.
They can only be questioned by a peer, and never in so public a forum as a court!
Since McCain was born outside the United States, and need a DEMOCRAT (Claire McCaskill) to introduce a “sense of the senate” to declare he was eligible, he was hardly in a position to open that particular can of worms.
Why then is it not reflected in the polls? He’s not moving.
Birth and New Yorker comments have slowed things down for him. Sorry, he walked into it.
Yeah.
When obama threw his hat in the ring, we tried to get this issue settled.
No, we were told, it's too soon, he's not the candidate.
When obama became the democrat candidate, we tried to get it settled.
No, we were told, it's too soon, he's not been elected.
When obama won the election, we tried to get it settled.
No, we were told, it's too soon, he's not been approved by the electoral college.
When the electoral college validated the election, we tried to get it settled.
No, we were told, it's too soon, he hasn't been sworn in.
When he was sworn in, we tried to get it settled.
No, we were told, it's too late, you should have said something sooner!
You do seem a little deranged. Alzheimer’s much? :-)
Trump wants this resolved as much as Democrats want to solve poverty.
If its resolved trump loses his ad hom attack on Cruz.
If people are lifted out of poverty they no longer need Democats for santa claus hand outs.
---------------------------------------
No, it doesn't. Here's how we know...
Alexander Hamilton's suggestion of "born a citizen" for Constitutional Presidential eligibility was rejected by the Constitutional Convention, and John Jay's 'natural born citizen" was adopted instead.
"Born a citizen" does not equal "natural born citizen.
Alexander Hamilton's suggestion (Article IX Section 1):
Alexander Hamilton's draft
John Jay's suggestion, intending the requirement to exclude foreigners (those born dual citizens are born foreigners):
John Jay's July 25, 1787 letter to George Washington

Which tweets are you referring to?
Wrong. And we know you are wrong from the British definition of naturally born.
Also, Trumps lawyers told him that in September and Trump is never wrong.
Trump is never wrong.
Chant that 1,000 times and you will get nit
Trump is never wrong
You lied about me and you won’t admit it.
That makes you a liar.
Isara posted a thread yesterday which contained all the tweets that Donald Trump posted when he got up on Saturday morning. You should try to find them.
It’s pretty funny.
Like I said I caught you trying to push the Alzheimer’s meme the other day and called you out on it and I’m calling you out on it today. You just don’t like getting busted. I’m going to be watching you. :-)
They were not yet citizens.
Not interested.
Either there is proof of naturalization or there isn’t. Either way, so be it.
By the way, the law under which Rogers v Bellei was decided was repealed in 1978.
You said that before and it is a damn lie. You could prove it if you could find a post where I did that.
You cannot.
The only time I EVER mentioned Alzheimer’s was weeks and weeks ago when some OTHER people were talking about it and I was a Trump supporter at the time and I defended Trump on it.
Now either find something to prove what you say or back off and admit the truth and I will be calling you out on this every time I see your name on this forum.
I have just a few words for you. I think you are either an idiot, or morally corrupt. I want no association with you. If you are a decent peron, you will respect the fact that I am disgusted by you, and leave me alone. I won’t bother you in the least.

The thing is... we AREN'T the UK, and we're talking about a document the Founding Fathers were drafting and adopting to set up our own country. Note that the new US Government didn't just copy the UK's laws? They drafted and adopted the framework for a totally different government structure and totally different laws.
But words had the same meaning as the British had, definitions didn’t change after 1776.
