I’m leaving this to the judges. But I do respect those who figure these things out for themselves.
Regardless of the merits in this case is, an important standard for me is that there be no double-standards. If Obama and the Democrats set a self-serving precedent, then I see little reason for Republicans to work to a higher standard.
I’ve always said there are good arguments on both sides of the issue, and it won’t be decided short of a SCOTUS ruling. And if anything, Obama has the better claim, unless someone could prove he was born outside the US. So I’ve argued with both sides who claim there is precedent and it’s settled. I also think if Cruz were nominated the Dems would use it to leave Cruz off the ballot in some states forcing Cruz to sue to be put on. So I would like 2DV to explain his 180 on the subject, especially since he questions Trump’s change of positions in recent years.
