OK, your statements go beyond the pot-and-kettle. It’s like the event horizon calling the kettle black...

If you want to reduce the snark level around here, you might want to deal with the log in your own eye first...

“Cruz team members would be well advised that something like this could definitely be used against them in the general.”

Spreading lies about Trump and Carson during the caucuses, putting out intimidating mailers - the most conservative, honest, trustworthy politician is off to a good start.

He’s shown he’s not only a typical politician, but is dirtier than most.

When his parents applied for it, under an act of Congress. The same way I got my citizenship. Both of my parents were US citizens and my dad was military. I was born in a US military hospital overseas. I am not NBC, Cruz is not even close.

So Cruz hasn’t been a US citizen since birth?

I was born in a military hospital in West Germany. I’ve been a US citizen since birth. Not sure why you don’t consider yourself a US citizen since birth.

Citizen from birth is not necessarily a natural born citizen.

No possible way would our Founders have considered Cruz a natural born citizen.

I don't trust anyone who **KNOWS** that the Founders would have never considered him a natural born citizen but then chooses to run for president anyway. And..He does this claiming to love the Constitution. Yeah! Right! ( eye roll)

Wow. So somebody pretending to be Ted Cruz on Twitter cited CNN to tell Cruz’s people to say that Carson was dropping out of the race, and now Carson is crying foul.

Seems like we need to know who sent that tweet.

When was Ted Cruz “naturalized,” then” When did he have his naturalization ceremony?

So where did that Tweet come from? I found this Twitter account, with fewer than 4,000 followers:

https://twitter.com/TedCruzPOTUS

Is that the account that supposedly tweeted out this CNN screenshot?

I never wrote that I did not consider myself a citizen. I am a citizen, just not a NBC. Cruz is not either. I got my citizenship through my parents under the statues passed by Congress, as you and Cruz did also. Cruz was a citizen of Canada until 2014 and he claims he did not know it. That causes me to seriously question his lawyer skills in the citizenship area. I would like to think that if I was a citizen of some other country, I would know it and I am not the “smartest Harvard lawyer ever”.

If Cruz is nominated then your question will need to be asked of the MarxoDemoProggies.

Because....Natural born citizenship **WILL** be used by the MarxoDemoProggies at a time when it **WILL** cause the most damage to the Republicans. Bet on it!

When was Ted Cruz naturalized, then When did he have his naturalization ceremony?

When he turned 18 and had to choose whether he wanted to be a US Citizen or a Canadian.

OH WAIT!

That didn't happen.

You’re a Trump supporter. You’re on Cruz’s email list?

The tweet was not from Ted Cruz’s genuine twitter account. Somebody else tweeted that in his name.

FOX News reporting this today along with bringing up Ted’s vote shaming.

FOX reporting Cruz used “dirty tricks”.
