To: Arthur Wildfire! March

I would support an amendment to make such a fine patriot eligibible.


I’m sure a large number of voters would also support such an amendment..however, and amendment to the US Constitution requires ratification, (approval) by 3/4 of the states. A long and complex process..well out of the scope of this election cycle..

An eligibility amendment at this time is a bridge-mending gesture.

We can at least be willing to support it if we think Cruz should be eligible. That we respect and admire him that much.

As for the future, who knows where it leads? Up to 3/4 of states, and we might as well trust them.

Also, I agree that a rapid constitutional amendment has never been achieved before. But with the speed of text-netowrking? It is possible now.
