"In the long run, they are meaningless."

Then so is the rule of law.

Fortuntely (in the case of Cruz) and unfortunately (in the case of Obama), you are incorrect on the law.

Then so is the rule of law.

Please point out the relevant part of the US Constitution that supports your opinion of the meaning of "Natural Born" citizenship requirements.

Lacking that, please point out the relevant law pass by the US Congress and signed by a US President that supports your opinion of the meaning of "Natural Born" citizenship requirements.

Lacking that, please point out the relevant US Supreme Court ruling that supports your opinion of the meaning of "Natural Born" citizenship requirements.

If you can't provide any of the above, you don't have a leg to stand on, constitutionally speaking.

You see, the founders of this country (those guys who wrote the US Constitution) were really smart guys and with the exception of Slavery (for very real and well-stated reasons) covered everything that they could think of at the time in detail. I sincerely doubt that if they thought as you do on this subject, they would have overlooked this issue and not have left clear requirements/or a definition in the Constitution.

Does not seem very likely.

Unfortunately that is a true statement, and the people here that wish to scrap it in order to pick a clean and articulate candidate are not going to restore it.

They need to bear in mind that Linda Graham was an articulate Congressman that we elevated to the Senate, then there is that other clean and articulate Hispanic from Florida we were all so jazzed up about just a short while ago. Then we have Runt Paul that sells us out on Amnesty and defunding Healthcare.

We have Battered Wives Syndrome.
