I have liked Cruz but I’m really tuned off by his failing to get his NBC eligibility decided in the federal court. If he’s all about what’s good for America, he should have taken care of that issue by now instead of gambling on the possibility of being DQ’d after being nominated, possibly giving the election to the socialists. That shows me personal political ambition above America’s future.
Have you ever heard of a sitting jurist giving an "advisory opinion"? They simply don't issue judgments outside of actual cases.
A retired jurist is free to do that, however. And all who have been asked have concurred: Cruz is eligible.
The only people with a problem regarding Cruz' eligibility are the birthers-- a collection of amateur lawyers.
