As evidenced by this article, the usurper is not breaking the law, as the definition of natural born citizen has been changed. So far they are getting away with it.
Inform yourself as to why Ted will never win.
Donald warned Cruz that eligibility would be an issue.
Cruz ignored him.
A Sanders supporter filed a lawsuit.
Lots of people are questioning Cruz’s eligibility.
Who is really reality challenged? Trump for warning Cruz. Or Cruz for ignoring the warning?

Caps lock key stuck??
“â¦I am pro-choice in every respect as far as it goes, but I just hate it.”
the guy who made that statement is more than a bit conflicted and or reality challenged
that guy would be The DONNIE
If you say so. I don’t believe it has been. I think it’s being studiously ignored and the spin doctors are out in record numbers.
It is NOT necessary that the parents be "Born in the U.S.", only that they were Citizens.
"The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens." .... The Law of Nations or the Principles of Natural Law, 1758
Unfortunately lots of men are told very loudly that they have no business having opinions about abortion because they are male and its women’s business. I think that is what was going on there and Trump decided that he was going to speak his mind after his friend’s experience rather than to continue being politically correct/avoiding attack by feminists.
That line of argument really burns me just like the “my body my choice” argument does. Someone else in the story has rights too. Leaving a stinking subject lie here rather than opining further about torturing & murdering the unborn.
I don’t want to trade one narcissistic President for one narcissistic New Yorker!!!
No, No, NO!
“Natural Born Citizen” means that those born of Caesarian section cannot be president! ;-) /s
Who is authorized to define “Natural Born Citizen” other than the Supreme Court?
It has a definition:
natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens
Excellent point.
No one is going to rule that Ted Cruz, being a citizen by nature of his birth, is not a natural born citizen.
This is a big red herring that too many freepers are chasing.
If you think Trump is the Savior of the Republic, then try to convince us by reference to his record and his positions over the years and his words and deeds.
If you have to resort to birther arguments to convince us that Trump is your political Messiah, then you have no ammunition.
“No foreign births, no foreign parents.”
Oh, except for Romney and McCain, right? ;-)
You got to red it to see what’s in it and what’s not. Try looking at the other side and where it’s been applied in other cases. Is it possible Cruz might be right?
McCain was ineligible, the fig leaf Senate Resolution notwithstanding, Mitt Romney was eligible.
“Clearly stated, to have Natural Born Status, your parents must be BORN in the US, and You must be born in the US.”
Oh, you mean like Romney and McCain, right? /s
The Citizenship Clause gives Congress the sole authority to define U.S. citizenship.
“It has a definition:
natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens”
*sigh* I get tired of typing this:
Like Romney and McCain, right? ;-)
And at the same time, no one is going to rule that he is.
What is, say, 25 Congresspeople came out and said "he's not qualified." What if 300 of them did? There is no ruling, by definition. No case in court, no electoral ballots in Congress.
Not that it will happen, but if Congress had any decency, it would telegraph its sense so as to promote good order in the conduct of an election contest.
I called my Senators and Rep. Told them about the Rogers v. Bellei case, and requested a letter telling me if Cruz is naturalized, in light of that case. They have all promised to reply.
Some police office could charge the person in Iowa, who certified Cruz qualified, with a violation of Iowa law. Today. Multiply by the number of states the GOP has certified papers with the Sec. of States.
