RE “I like him so much I might even shut up about the fact that he isn't eligible. Nowadays, what do the laws mean anyway?”

Cruz is perfectly eligible as a Senator. The topic being discussed is whether he is eligible for President. Given that he wouldn't be a citizen except for the fact that Congress passed a law back in 1934, he isn't.

You can't be a "natural citizen" if you have to have a law which grants you "conditional citizenship."

Discussed by who?? You and who?

He is legally a Senator and kicking butts.
