Sorry to disagree. I studied the Constitution a long time ago and that part hasn’t changed. There has been no Article 5 Convention by We the People to change it! We have however, since then been inundated with Harvard and other “Elites” that try to shove the Living Constitution doctrine down our throats. So called “experts” exist everywhere. i don’t let them do my thinking for me. Vattel says both parents must be citizens and the child must be born on American soil. That was the intent of the Framers. It was the intent of this country 50 years ago. The Constitution hasn’t changed, only the progressive Marxists have succeeded in warping people’s minds. Trump is a Natural Born Citizen, Cruz is NOT. if you wish to further destroy the Constitution and move further away from original intent then vote for Cruz. You will be destroying that which you profess to protect.

You say that you studied the Constitution a long time ago and that the Constitution hasn't changed. So what? Your statement does not enhance your position at all. Nor does citing Vattel. Nor does trashing the exponents of all of the Living Constitution crap.

You are not thinking deeply enough yet if you dare to insinuate that I am not an Originalist.

(All genuine arguments aside, I am fascinated by this irony: Americans twice elected a Marxist who has apparently never been a citizen of any countries except Kenya and Indonesia--essentially ignoring the Constitutional protection that our Framers intended. Now, confused conservatives are trying to block the Presidency of a solid and Constitutionally zealous patriot who has been an American citizen from his very birth.

The crowning irony is that I think the Framers would be appalled to see how many supposed conservatives are supporting Trump over Cruz.)
