He’s going to skip the exploratory committee and go straight for the jugular.

Ted Cruz plans to run for president.

The Houston Chronicle broke the news just before midnight Saturday evening, citing senior advisers speaking on the condition of anonymity who said that Cruz, the Texas Tea Party Republican elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012, would pursue the presidency.

The announcement would make Cruz the first Republican to officially declare his candidacy.

Cruz will announced his candidacy at a convocation ceremony at Liberty University in Virginia, the Chronicle reported.

The senior advisers cited by the Chronicle said Cruz aims to raise some $40 to $50 million, and he will run as an unabashedly conservative candidate, in contrast to the “mushy middle” Republicans he’s criticized in the past.

Cruz has strong support among the conservative base, as several high-profile polls have shown.

In a Drudge Report poll released at the beginning of February, Cruz took the No. 2 spot among likely presidential contenders, behind Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. In the 2015 Conservative Political Action Conference straw poll at the end of February, Cruz came in third behind Walker and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.

To you idiots, if a women crossed into Mexico to buy a vase one afternoon and goes into labor, her child, even though she carried that child 8 month and 30 days into labor on US soil, is somehow not a US citizen and a law must be passed to create citizenship for the child.

I'm not arguing that.

You try to redefine the word “natural” to mean some convoluted definition no one else has ever followed.

Actually, there's record that natural born means something stronger than what you think it means; the definition entered into the Congressional record of the House on March 9, 1866 during the discussion concerning the 14th Amendment:

“[I] find no fault with the introductory clause, which is simply declaratory of what is written in the Constitution, that every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.”
