since a number of law suits on obozo eligibility were thrown out on lack of standing, wouldn't a Cruz disqualification put in place case law so the obozo case would then have standing?

Federal courts held that no one but Hillary (in the primary) and McCain (in the general election) had standing to challenge Obama's eligibility. But state courts do not always follow federal rules re standing; many states hold that any voter has standing to challenge a candidate's eligibility. Both Georgia and Indiana held full hearings on Obama's eligibility, and both found him to be a Natural Born Citizen.
