Well, I will be flamed, but, clearly Ted Cruz is not an Arnold Schwarzenegger(sp?), who clearly is ineligible to run for president due to being born overseas, and became a naturalized citizen as an adult.
I think Cruz brought up some good points in the debate about this, namely, that depending how far we want to take it, Marco Rubio and Bobby Jindal would be ineligible based on the citizenship status of their parents at the time of their births. Is this really what the Founding Fathers had in mind?
I heard someone say too, that Rick Santorum’s father was not an American citizen at the time of Rick’s birth, so that he could also be said to be ineligible.
I don’t see why you’d be flamed, Dilbert. You shouldn’t be anyway.
I think that’s right. Rubio, Jindal, & Nikki Haley should not be eligible, along with Cruz. The point the Founding Fathers were making, as I understand it, was that there should be no possibility of divided loyalties- as best they could identify it. There’s no accounting for what’s in men’s hearts.
I didn’t know that about Santorum. If that’s true, then he shouldn’t be eligible either.
