a candidate is sufficiently loyal to America when you could have the electorate do it instead?

Because we are not a pure Democracy that decides what our laws mean by popular vote.

When you can’t win on substance...disqualify your rivals, it is the NY way!

Michele Bachmann served in the US House as a Swiss citizen.

I figured Trump and Obozo had alot in common... the mutual favor in the DNC media spin machine is quite telling.

How many posts of yours have been deleted today?

Just curious.

Trump tried to warn Cruz about this issue and help him out but all Ted could do is nervously joke about. Big mistake.

The requirement to be a Senator is that they be 30 years old, have lived in the U.S. for 7 years and be a resident of the State they represent.

Seems to me Ted meets those.

Just saw Bachmann on Christian tv. Wow, she is eloquent on the law and scripture. Darn shame the lefties in the gop refused to support her.

Let’s add this :

Obama: Born in Hawaii ( all that is disputed )
Mother: Born in the U.S.
Father: Born in Kenya

The bottom line is this — Are all four (with Obama in the mix) considered CITIZENS at the TIME of their birth?

Did anyone have to go through the naturalization process in order to become American?

If not, then all of them are citizens BY BIRTH and therefore, NATURAL BORN American citizens.

Trump just revealing his ignorance again. Just like with his answer on the nuclear triad question, this shows that governing is not his area of expertise.

Trump’s parents were citizens of the U.S. when he was born.

Have you just started following politics? Pointing out your opponents weaknesses, real or perceived isn't anything new.

I actually want these guys in a cage-match death struggle.

Let's sort out ALL the baggage now, because the "attacks" they're launching at each other are NOTHING compared to the mudslinging that's coming their way in the general against the Clinton smear machine.

They're running for the Presidency. This ain't afternoon tea with the queen.
