Just wondering......
Gotta figure out some posting guidelines in an election year. Used to be you could figure out when a poster or two was on the payroll of the candidate. Now it’s gotten completely crazy.
A good indicator would be how many still post after the election is over.
Can I ask you a couple of questions?
If a person is born in a foreign country to 2 US citizen parents and that country does not recognize children born in their country to parents who are aliens in their country, what nationality is that child born with?
Can a child be born stateless, a citizen of no country whatsoever?
Wow. Did you even bother to read the post.
How is it anti-GOP?
It was only to help Trump supporters avoid a possible case of looking like fools for chasing legal and practical non-starters.

Nicely done. I’d add to this the supposed Cruz sex scandal, about which no credible proof has yet been provided.
Issues, policies, how your candidate will be better than the rest, etc. Those are what you use against a candidate. I realize how difficult this is to do in the 24/7/365, got’cha, instant news era.
By wasting time on the issue, by giving Hillary ammunition to attack Trump supporters as “weirdos”... and because we will need EVERY voter, even the Cruz supporters, in November... because that is the election that counts.
Don’t let your heart be troubled! Donald Trump has not started on Hillary. The one time he did a brush-back shot, her polls started to tank. Bernie thought it was him, but it was Donald J. Trump.
Totally true.
My only worry is that, in the General, Hilleryites would use the Flat Earth argument as “proof” to “not even listen to that crazy man Trump”.... in the General.
Very few Trump supporters are concentrating on that issue. There a few who've been hung up on the issue since questions surrounded Obama's eligibility, but I think most people, no matter who they support, believe the issue is going nowhere and no court is going to rule anyone ineligible if they have any claim to born citizenship at all, either through one parent, or by virtue of being born on US soil.
The founders probably meant to have a restrictive requirement, but it's been lost over the centuries in the muddle of poorly written laws and amendments and court decisions, and no court is going to revive it.
The citizenship issue is a red herring. It might be moderately useful to Democrats in a very minor way if Cruz were on the ticket, but electorally it is meaningless. People do not vote based on that kind of issue...that died in America with multiculturalism and the relatively easy international travel of the late 20th century. If people had been serious about such an issue, Obama’s path to two elections would not have been so easy. A small slice of bedrock Constitutionalists are still interested - 98 percent of the voters are economically or security oriented.
Trump has and will beat Cruz on the issues of economy and security, and personality and background. Those are the issues that a candidate must win on, everything else is statistical noise.
Natural born v. native born.

It’s like that “well-regulated militia” part of the 2d amendment. If it wasn’t there, we would have an ironclad right to individual ownership, rather than a challenged one.
Listen up noob.
There is 100% chance that IF (Big If) Cruz is the Nominee that the democrats will knock his but out in late October with ONE liberal federal judge granting injunctive relief late in the game and the 4-4 USSC will be locked on it making the Democrat’s path without challenge.
So you can try spinning away the 6 Supreme Court case and Cruz’s own admission hes not qualified till you are blue in the face. He would still be gutted by a liberal judge when its too late to do anything.
So you can't explain your bumper sticker. Thought so.
Well that was easy.
Bye.
I was a regular here in the good ol’ IBTZ, Viking Kitties days, when the DU folk or just general sh*t stirrers would post and get zotted. I also remember when looking at a poster’s join date and commenting on them being new could get one in trouble here.
Wow.
Reading comprehension a real problem?
Did you even bother to read the ALL CAPITOLS line that this post was not about Cruz’s eligibility?
Try USC 1401, it’s right after 1400.
I think the only danger in treating the issue of NBC as a non issue is that that lack of push back goes to establishing a precedent where NBC is watered down. When the globalists have been trying to change the definition for almost 20 years it suggests to me that maintaining it is vital.
Strac6, check Kartographer’s posting history. You might change your mind. :)

Read Williamson, Meysmith and Phillips on “Federal Courts propensity against intrusion on the elective process.”
