When I concluded in post 300 That Natural Born Citizen means, a person born of citizen parents both mother and father loyal only to the USA. That was a contextual conclusion based the logic of the framers.

You stated my conclusion, said I was wrong while ignoring all the logic I used in that post. You compose your post like a clever attorney.

So I encourage people here to read my post # 300, then your reply and decide if they agree with my thinking or yours.

I didn’t say you were wrong. I agree that Cruz and Obama are ineligible. Read my posts.

You must have me confused with someone else.

Yes. Unfortunately, it's counter to what the Founders actually wrote into the Constitution, and also counter to at least what one prominent Founder, James Madison (who knew a thing or two about our greatest document) believed.

Guesses and extrapolations about intent can never trump their actual clear words.
