If Cruz steals it in the end, he will be an illegitimate candidate. he is not a Natural Born Citizen. I hope you’re right about Trump
I don’t think “steal” means what you think it means.
The silence of Cruz and his Natural Born status is deafening.
and he knows it. Cruz must have read de Vattel.
Ted is a self-serving hypocrite.
HARRISBURG, Pa. – Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has won a case in Pennsylvania's highest court that had challenged his eligibility to appear on the state's GOP primary ballot and serve as president.
The state Supreme Court order Thursday upheld a lower-court judge's decision to dismiss the case.
A Pittsburgh resident and registered Republican voter, Carmon Elliott, had argued that Cruz isn't eligible to run for president or to appear on Pennsylvania's April 26 primary ballot because he was born in Canada.
Commonwealth Court Judge Dan Pellegrini ruled March 11 that common law precedent and statutory history maintain that an eligible candidate includes any person born to an American citizen, regardless of where.
Elliott had acknowledged that Cruz's mother was born in the United States and has been a U.S. citizen her whole life.
WASHINGTON — A Pennsylvania judge affirmed Sen. Ted Cruz’s status as a natural born citizen Thursday and dismissed a lawsuit that sought to remove the candidate from the state’s Republican primary ballot, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.
Carmon Elliott, a Pittsburgh resident, filed suit in Pennsylvania’s Commonwealth Court to keep Cruz off the state’s April 26 ballot. Elliott claimed natural born citizenship — a constitutional requirement for the presidency — requires being born in the country in question. Cruz, who was born in Canada to an American mother, has argued that his mother’s citizenship made him natural born, regardless of the location of his birth.
Judge Dan Pellegrini wrote that a natural born citizen “includes any person who is a United States citizen from birth,” and ordered the state’s secretary of the commonwealth to keep Cruz’s name on the ballot.Ted Cruz is an American and can appear on N.J. primary ballot, judge says>Ted Cruz is an American and can appear on N.J. primary ballot, judge says
TRENTON — Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz is a "natural-born citizen" under the U.S. Constitution and therefore can run in the June 7 New Jersey primary, a state administrative law judge said Tuesday.
"The more persuasive legal analysis is that such a child, born of a citizen-father, citizen-mother, or both, is indeed a 'natural born citizen' within the contemplation of the Constitution," Administrative Law Judge Jeff Masin wrote.
A group of New Jersey residents and a Catholic University of America law professor insisted that Cruz, born in Canada to an American mother and a Cuban father, did not meet the constitutional requirements to be president.
