“Natural born” means born inside the borders of this country.

That is not true. It is not close to being true. It is not true in American history. It is not true now.

It will not be true by continually repeating it. It will not be true if you hold your breath. It will not be true for any reason, at any time.

You signed up for Free Republic just about one year ago. Perhaps you were lurking for a while. Maybe you had a prior handle that you let lapse. In any case, when the issue of Sen. Cruz' birth became an issue, you were on board Free Republic.

Therefore, you know that the law of the United States says that Ted Cruz is a natural born citizen eligible for the presidency. Those born to an eligible US citizen parent while outside the US are citizens at birth. That is the law. By US law, a "citizen at birth" is a "nat(birth)ural born citizen."

Good observation. Awfully coincidental that new GOP(e) type Freepers are popping up the same time momentum starts building for a 2016 Cruz run.
