Please. Give it up.

Let people talk. That's the only path to understanding.

The more you and others try to shut down discussion, the less people are going to arrive at the same conclusions you have.

For my part, I believe that Ted Cruz is exactly the sort of citizen the Framers had in mind when they crafted the restrictive eligibility requirements for the office of President. I believe he's cut from as good a stock as any of them were, and is eminently qualified to be our CIC.

But --- it took listening to, and reading the well crafted arguments of others on this board for me to logically work my way to that eureka conclusion.

Don't stop now. You're helping others to get to that same place, but you've got to be willing to let them talk too.

Would your opinion of the suitability of Cruz change if he were only 32 years old?

Would your opinion change if NEITHER of Cruz's parents were U.S. citizens?

If the Constitutional requirement read, "must be born to two U.S. citizens", would that diminish your estimate of Cruz's suitability?
