Did you see this?

Ted Cruz is not eligible to run for president: A Harvard Law professor close-reads the Constitution The closer you study the Constitution, the weaker Ted Cruz's case squares with the actual meaning of "natural-born"

Yeah, it's Salon, but the legal analysis needs to go into the mix.

Yes, I did see that and Ted is NOT eligible, which I keep saying and getting attacked for posting.

The government of these United States of America hands out study guides to those who are about to take the Naturalization exam. I know someone who took it 10 years ago. He told me, back then, about the whole NBC thing ( quoted from the book ) and unless the government has passed new laws since then, that I kn ow NOTHING about, it's so today!

Now remember, please, this was back in 2005, neither Obama nor Cruz was in a presidential primary, nobody had ANY axes to grind, the info was just between this man and me, because his wife was pregnant at that time ( and yes, he passed the test with flying colors !) and he had become a citizen before his pregnant wife gave birth, months later. He was really just thrilled to become an American citizen, but when he learned that his child might, one day, if he wanted to, could run for the presidency, that was the cherry on top for him.
