first and foremost, the socialist welfare state needs to be brought to an end. than we can talk about immigration. that’s just my opinion of course.
BS x 10.
Agree. He needs to declare ASAP and make sure the H(F)uckabees, Bushes, and Romneys stop hogging the media attention and siphoning off the streams of cash.
And THIS is the primary reason that ALL conservatives need to UNITE (& unite EARLY and FIRMLY) behind Ted Cruz for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. Cruz holds firmly to his core constitutional conservative beliefs, the other conservatives are “flexible” at best and poseurs at worse.
Bolton is for fake gay “marriage.”
huh?
The Rats aborted themselves out of existence.
So they’re desperate for a replacement cohort since theirs was murdered in their mothers wombs.
Mexicans are a win win for them: poor and non- white.
The Rats offer welfare ad affirmative action to them, if only they will vote to keep the Benificent and Wondrous Rat politicians in power.
A match made in hell.
Amnesty? Let Rats fade into oblivion with their insane suicidal lifestyle. We dont need to help them with their reinforcments.
It will be found unconstitutional to have a class of people who are permitted to live in the US, to work in the US, to build lives in the US, but are never permitted to pursue citizenship. We would be creating a form of serfdom, caste, some demeaning status that has no future.
I know liberals. They aren’t saying it now, but they’ll start saying it as soon as they get comprehensive immigration reform. “We can’t have slaves...they need to be freed and given the right to vote.”
Scotus will be on that faster than Obama covets taxes.
Sorry, I guess I was snoozing when it was decided the POTUS can be someone born out of the country to parents that are not both US citizens at the time of birth.
Can someone gently steer me to the change in the law that permits this previously illegal practice?
After all, I am a US citizen who was born in Canada to an American father and a Canadian mother (who became an American after my birth). I am naturalized (and I do have papers) so if Ted Cruz (regardless of his unquestioned good qualities) can be POTUS then so can I!! True?
Palin absolutely
Bolton - NEVER! He did nothing at the UN....he complained about the UN but did nothing to disestablish it or make it a non entity. I just don’t think he is good at running things.
I don’t have the energy left to explain...
Ferrrget it.
Yes you can. You were Born an American Citizen.
Now, please Post a link to the “Law” that says you can’t.
Reposting for clarification. You say you were Naturalized?
Your Father, being an American Citizen, automatically makes you an American Citizen as well, no matter where you were born.
My Wife’s Stepbrother had two Children who were born outside the United States, both are U.S. Citizens.
If I am mistaken, please correct my assessment.
huh?
Palin because you can’t just be right on the issues. You have to be able to deliver the message. I love Cruz, but please explain to me how he electrifies the crowd?
According to the immigration and naturalization office at the time (I was 16 so I did not get the college course on the process) I was not. I was required to accumulate documentation on residences, fathers name and residences, same for my mother, my places of schooling and other identifying and historical data.
I submitted all of that to someone.
I was living in Anchorage Alaska at the time and my mother lived elsewhere in Canada.
It seemed fairly quickly that I was given an appointment with a judge downtown. I went and he and I had quite a long conversation (1966, Vietnam etc.) and then he swore me in as a United Sates Citizen.
Some time later a naturalization certificate appeared in the mail.
When I went in the military I was required to show that documentation and explain the paper trail.
I think this means that your assertion that I was born a US citizen is based on hearsay rather than a foundation in law.
Using the debate trick to turn the burden of proof back on me is unworthy of a conservative in this context. That is not a friendly move.
I am sincerely trying to find out why it seems like FR has rolled completely over on the point of ‘natural born citizen’.
Again, what makes it OK that Ted Cruz with a very similar birth circumstance to me is automatically a citizen and I was not?
And I was not.
