Don’t you know that our presidential elections now have absolutely nothing to do with a candidates morals, beliefs, convictions, policies, historical record and abilities.

It is entirely dependent on a candidates popularity, just like high school elections. Trump is a tv star, a WWF star, talks smack. Got it?

Nor does it have anything to do, it seems, with adhering to the constitution. Everything you say here, I agree with.

I don't disagree with that either. I totally respect people being uneasy with Trump. There is good reason to be. Set him aside. There remains a question of whether the people will allow government offices to be occupied by people who are ineligible under our laws.

A person could be GREAT on the issue, a citizen of Dubuque - but the people of Springfield would not considered him qualified to be their mayor.

I'm not saying Cruz isn't American. But the constitution has a requirement that president be a natural born Citizen of the US. We should follow the law.
