Berger then went on to say he believes the Chicago Cubs will win the World Series in a 4-0 sweep.

Why wait so long to endorse someone who is more than likely to lose. What does it do for his “power” image?

So this part of the Constitution of the U.S. has just been tossed aside since we were convinced to nominate and then vote for B. Hussein O. I quote: "No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President..."

So, you see just being a "citizen" does not make you eligible to run for that office. You must be natural born, which means not just that you are born within the borders of the United States or that ONE of your parents is a citizen should you be born in, oh lets say Canada, but that BOTH of you parents are citizens at the time of your birth. Natural means that you are born to U.S. citizens! This is not rocket science.

I am saying that “Natural Born” has a meaning and it was well known at the time of the adoption of the Constitution. That is why the clause, “...or a citizen of the United States at the time...” was put in there. Natural meant that both parents were “citizens” or for the British, “Subjects”. There was a definite meaning for those words. Both parents had to be Citizens for you to be a “Natural” citizen just as both had to be “Subjects” to the Crown to be “Natural” subjects. Your place of birth is irrelevant as regards the “natural” element.

Maintaining foreign (Canadian) Citizenship from Senator Cruz’s birth until May, 2014, seals the deal, with all due respect to Mr. Robinson, he doesn’t even come close to meeting the Constitutional standard.
