“The Trump folks have to acknowledge that Cruz has his ruling.”

They want to continue to delude the nutty birthers and ignorant, misinformed masses that this is something to worry about it, so they have in the back of the mind that they can’t take the chance.

I know. The key constitutional issue (for originalists) was always allegiance.

Cruz has alliance with us, Barry from Indonesia, not so much.

As for current law (I think last updated in the 1950s) which congress uses to determine NBC, either parent needs to be a citizen if foreign born- which Cruz’s mom was.

In summary, Cruz is covered from an originalist perspective and under current law defining NBC.

Exactly. Didnt work in Iowa.

Wonder how much the NH polls close once Rubio and Cruz bite into Trump’s leads.

Maybe they split the delegates in the NH like they did IA — even if Trump wins by some margin.
