You miss the point entirely. Cruz is naturalized.

Like Obamatollah, Lyin’ Ted sealed his birth records and never provided documentation he has a CRBA and is a US citizen.

“A Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA) is official evidence of United States citizenship, issued to a child born abroad to a U.S. citizen parent or parents, who meet the requirements for transmitting citizenship under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).”

And, why cite Rogers if it is not germane?

Either way, he can’t overcome that tiny little problem of being a creepy, lying, condescending, back stabbing, and nationally rejected candidate in his own party. 3/4 of primary voters rejected him and that was his ceiling.

See my post #43 - Cruz has NOT provided documentation he is a US citizen.

I was a follower of Alan Keyes, who Obama beat for that Senate seat. EVERYTHING about him at the time said 'the Kenyan-born'...

Then suddenly all that disappeared...

It is completely germane.

I’d really like to see that CRBA, if it exists. If it is in perfect order, why didn’t Cruz release it?

You’d think Obama’s secretive treatment of his records would have turned most conservatives against that approach by now. Why support a candidate whose actions re his entirely germane records is, “The contents are for me to know—and for you to find out if you can get past the fact that they are sealed.”

The Kenyan Parliament minutes states he was born in Kenya.

Senate Resolution 511 was to vet McCain as a US citizen and eligible for POTUS. The Kenyan and Hellary were 2 of the 6 committee members. All, including Homeland Security Chertoff, agreed the definition of NBC was born in the US to two US citizens. The Kenyan signed his name to that definition in committee and the bill. Odd that Congress didn’t see any reason to vet the Kenyan. If that doesn’t scream known ineligibility, I don’t know what does.

ALL birth documents provided by Obozo are PROVEN faked, photo shopped, forgeries, doctored, etc.

A complicit media allowed this poser to become “President of the United States”

And NO I will not just “move on”.

It’s kind of important.... the rule of law, the highest office in the land, the constitution, fair and honest elections, the co-opted media, and the ignorance of the electorate, just to name a few.

Trump & investigators need to look into the issue of Obama’s Social Security number also. It is a number issued in Connecticut & Obama never lived there.

The Democratic party should be banned from running a president for the next ten years for allowing a foreigner to run for and winning the presidency.

Not to mention that Obama’s SS# fails e-verify. Perhaps it would be news if Trump couldn’t pass e-verify.

Or would the MSM simply tell us that some “fat fingered” clerk mistyped the original number? (They wouldn’t.)

Is his legal name Barack Hussein Obama II, Barack Hussein Obama (without the designation “II” indicating Barack Obama Jr.), Barry Soetoro or Barack Hussein Obama Soebarkah?

All of these names appear in various documents produced since 2008 regarding Obama's life story and his passport records.

CONFIRMED FACTS:

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA was born August 4th 1961. His mother was Anna Dunham, a U.S. Citizen.
His father was Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. a citizen of Kenya. In January 1964 Anna Dunham filed for divorce.
In 1965 Barack Hussein Obama Sr. migrated back to Kenya.
When Obama Jr, was 6 years old his mother married an Indonesian oil manager, Lolo Soetoro and the family moved to Jakarta.
Obama Juniors named was changed to Barry Soetoro. He attended school in Jakarta under that name.
At that time ONLY INDONESIAN CITIZENS were allowed to attend school(s) in Jakarta.
On his application to attend school Barry Soetoro/ Obama Jr was listed as an Indonesian citizen. His religion was listed as Muslim.

Just where is the paper work, showing the legal name change from Barry Soetoro, to Barack Hussein Obama???

William Jefferson "Bill" Blythe III; {Clinton} (born William Jefferson Blythe III; August 19, 1946).
Changed his last name from Blythe to Clinton, (@ age 15, approx year of 1961) see below:
from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton

Section Early life and career:

Clinton was born William Jefferson Blythe III on August 19, 1946, at Julia Chester Hospital in Hope, Arkansas.[1][2] His father, William Jefferson Blythe, Jr., was a traveling salesman who died in an automobile accident three months before Bill was born.[3] His mother, Virginia Dell Cassidy (1923–1994), traveled to New Orleans to study nursing soon after he was born. She left Bill in Hope with grandparents Eldridge and Edith Cassidy, who owned and ran a small grocery store.[2] At a time when the Southern United States was segregated racially, Bill's grandparents sold goods on credit to people of all races.[2] In 1950, Bill's mother returned from nursing school and married Roger Clinton, Sr., who owned an automobile dealership in Hot Springs, Arkansas with his brother.[2] The family moved to Hot Springs in 1950.

Although he assumed use of his stepfather's surname, it was not until Billy (as he was known then) turned fifteen[4] that he formally adopted the surname Clinton as a gesture toward his stepfather.[2] Clinton says he remembers his stepfather as a gambler and an alcoholic who regularly abused his mother and half-brother, Roger Clinton, Jr., to the point where he intervened multiple times with the threat of violence to protect them.[2][5]

How was it confirmed that Obama was born in the first week of August? Via the fake birth certificate?

Obama said he was born in the third week of July. For once I believe him.

Even England before our founding considered a “natural-born subject” to include someone born to a British father on foreign territory.

So you really are as dishonest as Cruz. Even the barfing-mega liberal Lawrence Tribe is more honest than you two self-proclaimed conservatives. He admits that what the Framers meant by Natural Born Citizen was, “Born in the US to two citizen parents.”

His excuse for setting original intent aside is that he’s a flaming liberal who believes in a living Constitution.

What’s yours?

There is absolutely no conclusive evidence that that was the “original intent” of that phrase. Natural-born subject already meant something different in Britain, which I described already. There is no reason to believe the founders would use such a similar phrase yet intend for it to mean something different.
