It doesn’t matter what Trump supporters think. Elections are won in the middle, by appealing to that sliver of the electorate that won’t automatically pull the lever for either R or D. We may not like it, but moderate undecideds determine who becomes president in this country.
The MSM WILL use this as a weapon against Cruz and they WILL succeed in painting him as a religious extremist. How many interviews will it take with Glen Beck, the guy who is an official surrogate and has campaigned repeatedly for Cruz, before the independent moderates decide, “No way!”
There’s a reason that Rush said the new joke in DC is “lose with Cruz.” The DC insiders know that the media has the ammunition to eviscerate him.
Regardless of religious beliefs we do know Edward wasn’t born on US soil. Even the
first nine Presidents were born on soil that became the USA after the formation of this
country. That is more than the Canadain born candidate can say.
Though the Declaration of Independence was dated July 4, 1776, it took 13 years to win and
confirm this independence on the battle fields. A recognizable new nation called the
United States of America, with its own constitution and government was established only in
1783 through the treatry of Paris signed by King George the Third and the representatives of
the United States of America.
Prior to this date, anyone born in North America, presently known as USA, was actually born
in a British Colony, controlled by England and was a citizen of England and pledged
allegiance to the British Crown. Thus nine of the forty-three Presidents, who had served
as president, were foreign born. These nine foreign born US presidents are listed hereunder:
1. George Washington (1789-1797) was born in 1732, in the British Colony of Virginia, and
was a British subject, until the formation of the Government of the United States of America
in 1789, when he became its first president.
2. John Adams (1797-1801) was born in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1735.
3. Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809) was born in 1743 in the colony of Virginia.
4. James Madison (1809-1817) was born in 1751 in the colony of Virginia.
5. James Monroe (1817-1825) was born in the colony of Virginia, in 1758.
6. John Quincy Adams (1825-1829) was born in 1767 in the colony of Massachusetts.
7. Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) was born in 1767 in the colony of the Carolinas.
8. Martin Van Buren (1837-1841) was born in 1782 in the colony of New York.
9. William Henry Harrison (1841) was born in 1773 in the colony of of Virginia. He died in
office from pneumonia.
The tenth US president, John Tyler (1841-1845) was the First US born president. He was
born in March 29, 1790, in the State of Virginia in USA.
