Indeed. This is the ultimate political question - the states get to vote on Cruz’s eligibility directly in the electoral college. No court is going to issue an injunction preventing Cruz from assuming office if he is elected.

What if the candidate is only 30 years old, would you still make that statement?

Is the Constitution so completely irrelevant now that we say it's whatever the States certify?

How about if a State voted in and certified slavery, is that how we roll now?

Then I guess you will be Ok with the guy who was born to a citizen Mom in Iran and held duel citizenship into his 40s if it comes up in the future? I am not worried about Cruz. He is a good man. I am worried about the radical that may get elected in the future if this precedent is set.

You do realize that the party can, outside of the courts altogether, find Cruz unqualified. The party has no obligation to run cover for an unqualified candidate, and does not need a court stepping in to say “you can’t run a 33 year old,” etc.
