Wait, didn’t you just mock the Supreme Court for ruling that blacks were property. Now you cite some obscure case that does not define “natural born citizen.”

It’s all conjecture.

NO COURT IN THE LAND WOULD RULE CRUZ OR RUBIO INELIGIBLE.

No, I mocked the notion that the Courts are always correct. Perhaps if you would pay more attention, you could keep up. (Also, put a question mark at the end of a question.)

Now you cite some obscure case that does not define “natural born citizen.”

Minor v Happersett is not obscure. It's pretty prominent in these discussions because it says exactly that the conventional wisdom is wrong.

NO COURT IN THE LAND WOULD RULE CRUZ OR RUBIO INELIGIBLE.

Cruz, I wouldn't be so sure about. Rubio, probably not. Cruz shares the exact same birth circumstances as Aldo Mario Bellei, and Bellei was stripped of his citizenship.

They will have to overturn Bellei to make Cruz a "natural born citizen." I wonder if Bellei is still alive, and how he would feel about this?
