I agree with Grayson only that it seems inconsistent for those who thought Obama was not a citizen by circumstances of birth to support Cruz’s claim to be an NBC.
Like most courts, I believe Cruz to be an NBC because I believe that means “a citizen due to circumstances of birth.” I have heard other, narrower interpretations bandied about, such as requiring either both parents’ citizenship and/or birth on USA soil, but I have yet to see a court uphold either.
They always kick the cases out on technicalities, lack of standing , missed filing dates, etc.
If your beliefs regarding NBC were the law, Congress would not have needed to attempt to amend the Constitution a dozen times during my lifetime to try and change the meaning. They have tried numerous times to allow for foreign born citizens to be eligible and substituted the requirement to citizen for 15 or 20 or 25 years. All of the attempts have failed.
44 Presidents all born on our soil, 47 Vice Presidents all born on our soil.
Why is so important to erode our national sovereignty and drop this requirement and open the door for the entire world to be POTUS.
It’s the polar opposite of nationalism, patriotism, and conservatism.
And the worst part about it this is that he knew before all others that he is not qualified. Cruz is a deceiver.
