Illinois and New Hampshire Agree Cruz Is A Natural Born Citizen

So does Canada.

(Wish TC would publicly address this and get it settled in people's minds once and for all. Cannot understand why he doesn't.)

This is Trump’s point, it would have to go through all these courts until it’s settled. No state court would be the final word if the Dems sue.

I hoped Cruz could resolve this too. All he does is make jokes.

I tried to vindicate him myself but came to the opposite conclusion even though it became clear that the courts would ‘gavel jockey’ on his bahalf due to fake 14 Amendment penumbras [or ‘fumes of interpretation’ if you want to think in terms of gasoline.]

14th Amendment does nothing to redefine natural born status ...

More thorough vetting in followup to this lengthy defense ...

Quick Notes on Eligibility

[I’m no lawyer, but even lawyers have trouble with this — it’s a specialty topic.]

Two Ways of Looking at This

One Way: Original intent. No matter what original intent you look at, Cruz is not eligible.

— Some say ‘must have mother and father — US citizens when overseas.

— Some say ‘must at least have US father when overseas’

— Some insist you must be born in the US.

As a lawyer he knows not to ask questions where the answer won't support his case......
