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.

You need to dig in to the federalist papers and other writings of the founders, what you discribe is exactly what the founders meant. Trump is wrong.

Amen to that. If Cruz is eligible then why not a ISIS guy take an American girl here - settle in Syria or else - they have a child BORN THERE that he will bring up to being a ISIS faithful about religion and all and then when the kid is 35 years old bring him back here and run for President. Or bring him here earlier so he can go to Harvard and then run for prez

That's the thing with Obama and Cruz - the Founders were very clear that a President can NOT have another allegiance than to the United States. That was their fear. And see what happened these last 8 years with obama and Jarrett - iranian - in the background!

That's why it is so important that whoever is running for President is an American!

Those who say that Trump mother was born in England are really stupid - 1) she was an American citizen when he was born - 2) BOTH parents were American - 3) he was born HERE in AMERICA!!!

So if you don't want a son of Isis as the next President you'd better be careful not to create too many precedent - we already created one with obama - let's not continue on that road or we will be very sorry - I bet ISIS has already worked on that plot and the next ISIS president may already be alive and well somewhere in the Middle East.

So BEWARE... it has nothing to do with who you like as a candidate - it has EVERYTHING to do with keeping America an AMERICAN Judeo Christian Country following our Constitution and not sharia law!!! If Cruz can be president then anyone can!!! Just need an American girl to start the process.

WAKE UP!!!
