Trump Should Drop Out if He Doesn't Get Majority in New York, Cruz Campaign Manager Says
ABC News ^ | April 7, 2016 | Jordyn Phelps

Ted Cruz’s campaign manager is calling on GOP frontrunner Donald Trump to drop out of the race if he fails to clinch a majority in his home state primary later this month.

“If he doesn’t get over 50 percent, he should probably consider dropping out, like everyone else has when they don’t win their home state in a dramatic fashion,” Cruz campaign manager Jeff Roe said in an interview on ABC News’ “Powerhouse Politics” podcast Thursday.

While quipping that he doesn’t expect the GOP frontrunner to take his advice, Roe also acknowledged that Trump is the “huge favorite” headed into the New York primary and that it is an “away game” for Cruz, who did little to invite the New York vote when earlier in the campaign cycle he criticized Trump for having “New York values.”

“I’m assuming Donald is very strong in his home state,” Roe said.

they are required to be a citizen of the usa.
the singular word citizen would commute the principle of a singular citizenship status.
After all, the members of the senate are required to be eligible within the succession plan of the constitution, to the office of president. Foreigners NOT allowed.

But you are right in that there is no specific prohibition about them not being multi-citizens either... just like there is no specific provision that they must not be a convicted murderer, or a paid agent for the nation of Iran... or mexico... or canada.

Sometimes people get into positions who should NOT be withn the halls of any government facility at all, anything but a prison... for example Dennis Hastert, and Hillary Clinton, and Barcky the Obama...

Just because they can, does not mean they should and just because they did, does not make it any less criminal.
Up until months ago, Ted WAS a foreign citizen, working as a US senator.

Cruz should go back to NY and tell them what pitiful people they have elected for decades now. Tell them they don’t know how to vote correctly. Just say they are wrong over and over. It won’t help, but it would be a lot of fun to campaign like this.
