Most Cruz supporters can read and decide that issue for themselves. Nobody but a candidate would have standing in court to bring a suit on Cruz's eligibility. If Trump believes there is an issue, which completely contradicts his position on the matter this summer, he should take it to court. I just go by the definition in the 1790 Naturalization Act which was written by the same men who wrote the Constitution and signed into law by George Washington:

The Act also establishes the United States citizenship of certain children of citizens, born abroad, without the need for naturalization: "the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens".

“Most Cruz supporters can read and decide that issue for themselves.”

Yes they can but their personal decision is irrelevant to a lawsuit contesting Cruz’s eligility. Hasn’t a Florida guy said he’ll take it to court if Cruz is nominated?

I think Cruz should just forge ahead and leave the citizenship in the hands of voters. If he were nominated would the court nullify the votes of millions of citizens? It’s a fuzzy issue. I think not.
