Day six (?) of Cruz distraction. Whatever his intention, merely by answering a question, Trump has thrown all the Cruzers and even to some degree Cruz himself into a week’s worth of distractions, unfocusing him. If it doesn’t take him off message, it sure took the media off his message.

Maybe. But on a more positive note, it has also distracted the media from covering any Republican candidate who isn't Cruz or Trump.

I think that is a very good development for those who are supporting either Cruz or Trump.

DISCLOSURE: I am a Cruz supporter, but will vote for Trump if he wins the nomination. I won't vote for any other candidate (not that it matters anyway, since my state will go for Hillary or Bernie no matter what the rest of the country does.)

I know that if I was Cruz and half my support was open to supporting another candidate, I’d also be pretty worried about someone introducing such doubts among my softer supporters.

Cruz is a “natural born” citizen of Canada, not the U.S.

If a person could be “natural born” of two countries the clause wouldn’t have been put in the Constitution. It was put there to weed out possibilities of foreign influence.

Yep, and that’s the problem.
