“I see in history two cases that seriously threaten Ted Cruz’s position, but in this topsy-turvey world of legal made up nonsense with no consistent meaning, they may not amount to anything.”

My own honest belief is that if the intent of the founders is to be honored neither Cruz nor Rubio is eligible but what does that matter after the Obama Fiasco. If the democrats challenge Cruz they are hypocritical beyond belief but it would not surprise me. I also would not be surprised if the democrats one day want to run an Iranian Ayatollah on the grounds that he is a natural born American citizen because his father killed a natural born American citizen who was born in Norway to an Iranian father. It would certainly make as much sense as some of the recent supreme court decisions on other matters.

Exactly. Since we have let vermin in under the wire, there is no point in keeping out a good man.

IMHO, Cruz seems to be eligible since his mother was a citizen. But neither Rubio nor Jindal are eligible.
