Quagmire for cruz. good luck.
Should not take long to figure out.
He may have every right to run, but there is plenty of ambiguity about whether he is eligible to actually serve if elected. That is why Trump has been urging Cruz to get it resolved now.
Of course. He is a liberal left wing judge in Cook County. It will be thrown out.
Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama should be proof enough of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by requiring someone who could only be a US citizen and nothing else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
One cannot be anything else and also be a natural born citizen.
Obama told us he was born a British Subject.
Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?
I want this settled in the most hostile courts possible. Those are the types of courts to worry about.
Whoever that idiot wrote this didn’t do a thorough search and is full of it, and so are you.
To foreign nationals, acquiring their nationality as well as being afforded 14th amendment citizenship in the US.
Citizen, yes, but not a natural born citizen.
Ineligible.
Despite the close timing, Joyce said it is worth letting his complaint play out.
"The nomination doesn't take place until July," Joyce said. "So if a determination is made after the primary that Ted Cruz is not eligible to be president then certainly it would be incumbent upon the Republican National Committee not allow the name of Ted Cruz to be entered at the convention in July."
Another story that does not clarify the parents names on the voter rolls of Canada in the year he was born...Dual citizenship? Put America first? Answer the fact he was an anchor baby in Canada if not...This is all not going to be settled in one court case.
If SCOTUS didn't do nothing then, and nothing about Obama, what makes you think they're going to do something now about Cruz?
I like your clear reasoning here and in #6.
This will not go well. They will drag it out until November.
They don’t have standing to bring the suit. Recall what was said about anyone who tried on BHO.
Not a technicality Ted....a fact. And to say you never knew? Ridiculous.
Chester A. Arthur destroyed all the evidence before he died, I don’t think it can be proven one way or the other.
To non-citizen parents.
I don’t think this is a quamire. I’ve read Article II, sec. 1 of the constitution and it sayz nothing about being born on American soil and or born to two American citizen parents. This has never been adjudicated by the SCOTUS either. In fact, the SCOTUS continuously refused to take it.
