"IMO, the Constitution is still the law of the land and States may not supersede its basic tenants....but is 2016 after all, let's party!! "

My point is that if or when they do act counter to the constitution, there's only one place to go to have it corrected.

And I believe it is likely one or more states will not allow Cruz access.

He would not have been able to obtain ballot access in Texas when he first ran as a Senator if he had disclosed he was a Canadian citizen, and would probably not be able to do so today if he still were.

I don't disagree with that, you're correct, there is only one remedy being the Courts.

That part I will take a little disagreement with.

The Constitution only requires a person be a Citizen of the US, among other things.

I don't dispute Cruz is a Citizen, I dispute his status as a NBC.

You in my estimation are correct that some State are going to cause some trouble, no bout a doubt it!
