Otherwise, the Democrats and the MSM (but I repeat myself) will be hammering the public about it on a daily basis in the event Senator Cruz garners the nomination.
And if a federal judge decides to take the case, all bets are off.
I think I am looking forward most to the next debate. It is going to be historic. We will see who really has the debate skills. Trump has proved himself in the previous debates. We will see if Cruz really as good as he says he is. I haven’t been this psyched for a debate in.....ever.
Yes, indeed, what the judge will say is all that matters, not what the pundits, or you or I say. And any interested party who cares to litigate this, will find a sympathetic judge, or even unsympathetic judge who is a strict constructionist and will follow the constitution on this matter.
I agree with Mark Levin....Donald drop this one...there are way to many other fish to fry

It is in bed. Only the media and Trump supporters care.
The Constitution has not changed. It is NOT a living document. He held two citizenships all his life until a year ago. IMHO, he is not eligible.
Cruz not being born in the U.S. is not new news.
It has been generally agreed, I think, that a natural-born citizen includes one who has an American-citizen parent and is born on foreign soil - like a U.S. diplomat to a foreign country whose child is born there.
You people are playing the left’s game. Go back to DU.
I think you left the GOPe off your list
“This issue needs to be put to bed as definitively as possible, IMO.”
I agree. I’m starting to think that they (Trump and Cruz) are in this together, as doing so provides 2 MAJOR benefits:
1) It forces the question to be dealt with on THEIR TERMS, and on THEIR SCHEDULE. If Trump wants Cruz for VP, then get this out of the way, once and for all.
2) It leaves Rubio and the other kiddies once again gasping for media oxygen, just as the first Primaries are right around the corner.
Trump has proven, to me at least, that he’s smart enough to come up with something like this...and Cruz has proven to all of us that he’s smart enough to go along.
Several lawsuits have already been filed on the eligibility of Cruz, Rubio, and Jindal. All of them have been dismissed.
it was put to rest by our third Congress who defined Cruz status in the Naturalization Act of 1795. Their definition was “citizen”.
