Will the Dems let Cruz, born in Canada to a Cuban father, be Hillary's opponent in the General election?
The media will have a FIELD DAY with Cruz’s birthright status and they simply don’t give a shiite that they totally ignored the same issue with Trump.
By the time the election comes, they’ll have dubbed videos showing Cruz singing the Canadian National Anthem (which is not a bad song, actually) at his campaign rallies.
Needless to say, most Cruz supporters are low-information, so they have NO CLUE as to what is in store for Cruz, once Trump is out of the way.
The executive order exists that he signed in 2009 for a crisis of no definition that is left to his discretion. What has he not done to give you rise to discount his desire to fulfill the final transformation?
You apparently haven't been paying attention to survey data that repeatedly shows Hillary crushing Trump in the general.. but hey... feel free to continue down your delusionary path. Enjoy your walk and be sure to whistle a little tune by the graveyard as you pass by.
And what statistical measurements give you that idea?
I won't deny that in the minds of some, there is a question about the NBC status of Cruz. But none in mine. I am certain that under any standard, that of the Framers or a modern standard, Cruz is an NBC. Rubio would not be if the standard of the Framers' day were applied, but in the modern age of the 'anchor baby', supported by the courts, he would be. In any case, it ain't gonna be Rubio. He's a dead man walking. It could be Cruz, I think he can have the numbers by Convention time; if not ta majority, then a plurality at least. The Democrats will make eligibility an issue at their own risk. And they will lose in court and everywhere. It's not a good issue for them.
“Zzzzz”
well said
I hope current trends hold.
However, if somehow the GOPe manages to defeat Trump with Cruz, they would have delivered the RATS the best weapon to destroy us with.
I don’t understand why our ‘conservative’, ‘patriots’ cry foul at Obama’s ineligibility but ignore Cruz’s totally unsettled nbc issue!
I don't think you have much to worry about.
They let a guy who was born in Kenya to an African father sperm donor run as a Dem. They'd have to be pretty hypocritical to complain about Cruz.
But, hey... nobody expects consistency from those disingenuous bastards.
I apologize, evidently lying isn’t your issue at all....
Selective reading and poor analysis is the issue for you.....
Several legitimate polls show Cruz being crushed as well. in fact, the only candidate who consistently beats Hillary in the polls is Kaisich...Like that would happen....
Currently, large numbers of Independents and blue collar Democrats are flocking to Trump....
I wouldn’t put any stock in head to head polls until there is a nominee....
BTW...The only tombstone I will be whistling by is Hillary’s as the republican nominee crushes her....
‘I think the Dems will let him run.....’
If they let him run, it would be a disaster:-
I admit Cruz will be better than Hillary, but for us to join the Dems to destroy the US Constitution, in this case, to destroy article 2 nbc requirement, without the proper Amendment, would be hypocritical. We would be no better than the RATS!
Uhhh...
Will the Voting public of the USA allow Obamugabe, born [somewhere] to a Kenyan father become POTUS?
Yep.
Next question please.
We’ve lowered the standard...Cruz is eligible for lack of Constitutional fortitude of the citizens.
Y’now, you present a ^delicious^ scenario.
Cruz becomes the R-nominee and is hamstrung by a court-action to determine his eligibility.
Hillary is the D-nominee and is hamstrung by a DOJ/FBI investigation (which would translate to her eligibility).
To paraphrase Fred Rogers, “can you say constitutional conundrum”?
What issue would that be?
“What issue would that be?”
Dammit, meant Obama. I need to proof-read a bit more carefully (or get better informed, lol).
Sorry you're not able to follow the data that is so readily available. Perhaps employing a bit of reading comprehension might be of help to you.
And as for "legitimate polls" showing Cruz being crushed... feel free to include a link. I'd like to see them... if they indeed exist.
+1
I like Cruz, but the cloud of uncertainty over his eligibility is unsettling.
And it's not only constitutional conservatives or those who were educated when civics was regularly taught in school for whom his Canadian birth is a problem. I've also encountered twenty-something, low-info voters (independents, republicans) who reject the idea of electing a president born in Canada.
‘And they will lose in court and everywhere. It’s not a good issue for them. ‘
That would be the best scenario.
It appears that you have not paid attention to the thousands of obama eligibility lawsuits.
The liberal courts/judges were all on obama’s side - delaying, avoiding and outright making up the laws or completely ignoring the laws, or bouncing it back to Congress who remained silent...
Every level of government is so corrupted and on the RATS’ side that We the people were completely helpless!
Why would the RATS not crush us again this time when we have a Ted Cruz that was born in Canada to a Cuban father, especially when they stand to lose due to unenthusiastic Dem voters.....................
