“There’s no reason to talk about Cruz at all. He’s eligible, based on the precedent set by nobama. End of discussion.”

That is a false conclusion. The Constitution does not permit the amending of the Constitution by precedent court decisions, faulty or correct.

Ted Cruz is an American citizen, but he is no a natural born U.S. citizen as required by the Constitution for eliginility.

The American Constitution does not operate by precedent. That’s the British Constitution.

The meaning of the U.S. Constitution is what was intended by those who wrote or amended it, not what was wished for by those who have twisted or disregarded it.

Cruz realizes it. In his last interview on the subject, he only said he was citizen at birth and then cut off talk about his eligibility only stating he would let others debate the issue.

The biggest and loudest fire will come from the Democrats if Cruz is nominated. The Hillary supporters along with the Main Stream Media will be out in force questioning Cruz’s eligibility just like the did with McCain, but had the Panama Canal zone and two US citizen parents.

I say Cruz opts out and stays the best senator from Texas and arguably the best senator in the United States for a long long time. Not really a bad choice.
