I don’t think R’s will make an issue of Ted’s place of birth.
If I understand the situation, he was born to an American mother who happened to be out of the country for Ted’s birth and that Ted is NBC.
As for the NY Times...who the heck knows w/ that group? What I have noticed is that the NYT does not have the power it used to have in forming public opinion.
Well I now know how you get double posts. Sorry about that. My two cents was certainly not worthy of two dang postings.
