What do you people want?

This has been resolved in favor of Cruz by far more people than still question it.

It is the only weapon The Don has apparently.

Unless Moses comes down from the mountain with a scroll saying Ted Cruz is a natural born citizen, I don’t know what you expect him to do.

This is another example of the Trump mentality.

He has a commanding lead in the polls. He’s already agreed that he could shoot someone in broad daylight and his followers would still tag along.

But he is just a mean, vindictive man.

“This has been resolved in favor of Cruz by far more people than still question it.”

Sorry but courts decide cases not political pundits.

“It is the only weapon The Don has apparently.”

Who’s at 40% and who’s at 10%?

Why doesn't Cruz take his Constitutional arguments as to why he feels he is a Natural Born Citizen, and publish them is newspapers as a full-page ad? Then when people strive to refute his arguments, he can explain his case.

I assume you think that having "Trump mentality" is a bad thing. I take it as a complement...we're angry about where the US is now, but have confidence that a person who is a force of nature just might be able to turn things around.

I really, really doubt that the founding fathers meant that someone with an American mother and a foreign father, born anywhere in the world, and being a citizen there, was supposed to be a "natural born citizen" of the US.

When did that happen?

The fact is that “people” have no value as binding legal precedent. It takes an actual court case at the level of the SCOTUS and one does not exist. When and if the question is resolved it will be resolved on the basis of evidence of the intent of the Framers at the time that the phrase “natural born citizen” was inserted into the Constitution and ratified in the individual states. Subsequent statutes and the Fourteenth Amendment will not be looked to.

Trump is salivating... The only person who stands in the way of himself and absolute corruptible power is Ted Cruz.

Trump the magic Windsock needs to put up or shut up. Isn't there a Bill and Hill rubber chicken dinner he could be hosting?

I know you reject this, but the law is settled against Cruz. There is no way a persistent din would exist, if there was not at least a serious, substantiated doubt about his eligibility. When he defends himself, he cites no legal authority, he just claims it exists. Cite a SCOTUS case, fer cryin' out loud.

Its time to ignore this bully.
