I don’t disagree, but I don’t think the Supreme Court will ever agree to even debate not to mention decide the issue. They will just keep tossing it back to lower courts who will decide in favor or any Citizen other who has an American born parent as did Obama and Cruz. I am not saying that is right, but pragmatism (Easy way out) tells me that is the way it will be if it is ever challenged again.
You could be right that SCOTUS would punt the issue forever.
However, the court that WILL NOT PUNT is the voting public. WE have the right to interpret the requirement for ourselves, when we enter the voting booth-—if it matters to us.
As I said before, it is incomprehensible that the framers intended to allow a person born in the British Empire to become POTUS. We were in a brief hiatus between wars with Britain (and Canada, as a British possession).
As a matter of fact, many American colonists who had remained loyal to Britain during the American Revolution fled to Canada in the 1780s. WOULD THE FRAMERS HAVE WANTED THE CANADIAN-BORN CHILDREN OF THESE TRAITORS TO BECOME PRESIDENT?
In 1812 the Brits sailed up the Potomac River and burned Washington.
This is just an illustration or the problem, but throughout the 19th century, military historians would understand that the reason the United States was not attacked by Britain, including our shipping, was that we had British possession Canada, with that long indefensible border, as out hostage.
For me, at least, this issue is important. I had no problem with Cruz as Senator-—but POTUS is a different matter entirely. I am stunned, actually, that alleged constitutionalists like Mark Levin attempt to dismiss the issue. It totally undermines his credibility as a constitutionalist going forward.
