-- There's an open argument to be made about what the constitution supports in that wise. --

There is no informed argument to the contrary, that is honest. Not for Cruz, maybe for some other marginal case, like birth abroad during vacation, but not for this case. Not if the constitution is followed.

-- Obama dodged it through courts that were unwilling to grant anyone standing. --

Obama dodged it because nobody in Congress and none of his opponents in election challenged based on being born to an alien father who had never resided in the US. His qualification was, in legal terms, "conceded." It could have been challenged by ANYBODY in Congress, and ANY of the parties that lost the pres race to the DEM slate. No challenges. Party hacks and congress gave him a pass.

-- I can take a loose view when there is a doubt and that is advantageous. --

We each have to do our own practical and moral calculus. Life is sometimes tough that way.

The phrase “that is honest” is just a spin to try to make your own opinion incumbent on others. I see the spin, and do not accept it.
