He was the loudest voice on B.O.’S birth certificate ..didn’t see anyone around here complaining about Trump back then

Trump bringing it up in 2012 wasn't exactly cutting edge.

I know. Totally not an issue for running for Senate. Thanks to Obama, now an issue for potus. I’m just a little worried because the courts are so crooked.

That’s some creative memory you’ve got there.

Anyone interested in what really happened and what caused comprehensive immigration reforms defeat. Sit and watch.

(spoiler alert, Cruz had ZERO to do with it)

“In “Immigration Battle,” a special two-hour feature film presentation from FRONTLINE and INDEPENDENT LENS, acclaimed independent filmmakers Shari Robertson and Michael Camerini take viewers behind closed doors in Washington’s corridors of power to explore the political realities surrounding one of the country’s most pressing and divisive issues.”

He successfully made it a legitimate issue before the election and actually forced the Dims to respond . Nobody else was able to do that

He was ON a MSM show!

Utterly delusional.

As long as 6 companies own 95% of Media .... no. The MSM is here to stay.

Cruz rode Trump’s coattails and even copied some of Trump’s positions...

Don't you have that backwards?

Donald John Trump

Born June 14, 1946 in Queens, New York, NY (Jus Soli)

Parents were
Frederick Christ Trump, born October 11, 1905 in Queens, NY, died June 1999 in Queens, NY
Mary Ann MacLeod, born May 10, 1912 in SCOTLAND, died August 7, 2000 in Queens, NY. Arrived in US October 5, 1935. Naturalized as a US Citizen March 10, 1942.

Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Jus Sanguinis)

Donald Trump was born in the US to two US Citizen parents so is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN

That’s a pretty distorted view of things there Joe.

As an aside, you might want to downscale your Goldman Sachs references, seeing that Trump and Goldman Sachs are joined at the hip and have been for years.

When I go to the WND link for the article and read what Ted says, it seems weird. Sort of rambling. Looking for something to latch onto. Very Beckesque. Is it contagious?

Nope .. Cruz wouldn’t be where he is if it weren’t for Trump ... Cruz even flip-flopped on a few issues once he saw how popular they were for Trump .

Starstruck says it all in one word. Trouble is not many freepers are starstruck. Starstruck people should realize that. I hope Trump is learning things as he goes along. And I hope he doesn’t have all Communists in his entire close family. Like the starstruck people in the last two elections didn’t know about Obumma or didn’t care. Cruz is principled and has his Hart in the right place. Trump has his Hart in the right place but is not principled. Let’s all just vote Cruz and if he doesn’t win pray that Trump puts him on the ticket. Or better yet chief of staff or Cabinet.
