Its so sad that you feel the need to either attack or post so large that the presentation obscures the material. I respect you for your service but not for your snap judgements about people based solely on whether they seem to support your positions. I am very careful in posting to give supporting links or state that something is an opinion.
I think as I have stated many times that Cruz is an excellent man and a resource for our country. Some of his positions have troubled me but in no way do I want him attacked or marginalized over the birth right citizen issue. I think that there is considerable support that the Founders and many judges established the requirement for a President/Vice president to be a natural born citizen requires him/her to be born of two American citizens. This has traditionally included birth in the USA but has been extended to those out of the country on our counties service.
There is no lying here no intent to distort. I think your posts sidestep the issue while establishing Ted Cruz’s citizenship they neglect the issue of natural born being defined as of two American citizen parents. That position is actually spelled out in some of the material you have posted. The literature is replete with people who have played fast & loose with the definitions, intermingling them fallaciously. So its easy to find quotes with that approach. If you return to the sources two citizen parents are always specified when the distinction between citizen, citizen at birth and natural born citizen are distinguished. Additionally the correspondence of the Founders at the time is clear in their intent.
My preference would be for the issue to be defined and congress and the parties to sign off on the standards that are so defined. The Founders were trying to protect our country from being damaged by leadership contaminated by foreign allegiances. If Obama had been held to the standard of two citizen parents a great deal of damage to America could have been avoided. If congress decided to grandfather Ted Cruz and hold the line from this time forth I would be quite satisfied. I am not against Ted Cruz, I am against the erosion of our constitutional protections.
As an aside why are the majority of the books on your about me page related to Clinton?
