If that could ever happen, Congress will invalidate the election due to Cruz being ineligible to be President.
It has been said time and again that no court, not even the SCOTUS, has authority to judge the eligibility of a Presidential candidate. That is why no court proceeding has been effective to block Cruz from being on the ballot. Only Congress can judge the eligibility of the President.
AMENDMENT XX
Passed by Congress March 2, 1932. Ratified January 23, 1933.Note: Article I, section 4, of the Constitution was modified by section 2 of this amendment. In addition, a portion of the 12th amendment was superseded by section 3.
Section 3.
If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.
Yet, even before that, a Cruz nominee would face so many vehement attacks from Liberal Democrats through the campaign after the convention that the general election would be a fruitless joke.
You cannot wish this problem away. I am not the only voter that is aware of the fraudulent Ted Cruz. Cruz is aware of his ineligibility himself, yet he is attempting to bluster his way through the theft of the Presidency. What Cruz fans should think hard about is the "Yuge" number of voters that also understand that Cruz is a lying fraud, especially when it comes to his ineligibility. He was hamstrung by the circumstances of his foreign birth.
Agreed, this is all they understand. Goodbye to their power.
